Today, residential solar panelscan provide sufficient energy to power buildings in remote locations, eliminating the need to connect to the electrical grid. Living in a secluded area often used to mean living without power, as installing new utility lines to isolated areas can be extremely challenging, and therefore, quite expensive.
Isolated buildings can be equipped with a solar panel system toprovide heat and pump water. Typically, rooftop systems are most efficient, as their maximum exposure to sunlight allows them to collect more of the sun’s energy. In remote areas, an off-grid PV system is a reliable and cost-effective power source.
Solar powered systems have the capacity to provide enough electricity for lighting and appliances used in a remote home or vacation cabin. Farms and businesses in outlying areas can also use photovoltaic panels for electrical power. Isolated buildings can be equipped with a solar panel system to provide heat and pump water.
The solar PV system acts as a supplement to the hydro system when consumption increases and more power is needed to meet demand. In total, the PV and hydroelectric system delivers a combined generation capacity of 8.8 kW of DC and 8 kW of AC power.
The hybrid DRE solution of pico-hydro and solar PV systems in meeting the local community’s power needs showcases a proven model that can be replicated by similar communities to attain energy self-suficiency and reduce the use of diesel fuel. Based on the feasibility study, the DRE solution is a pico-hydro solar PV hybrid mini-grid system.
