Optimum Arrangement of Photovoltaic Systems in Housing at Khartoum : Application of Renewable Energy in Urban Design

Abstract EN

This paper searches to find out of building integrated photovoltaic system designs in Khartoum.

It discussed technical issues and designed an integrated of photovoltaic in domestic using, within an urban approach towards sustainability in energy.

Photovoltaic systems can be used to develop the solar energy in almost all kinds of applications.

Exploiting of solar energy for domestic use is one avenue where the energy produced from the sun is converted into electricity to power most if not all the appliances available at our homes and residences.

Building a photovoltaic system is the process of designing, selecting, and calculating the ratings of the equipments employed in the system.

This process depends on a range of factors such as geographical location, solar irradiation, and load requirements.

I introduce the procedures utilize, in building and selecting the equipments of a grid-connected photovoltaic system based on the Watt-hour demand of 3.8 kw.

As a case study, a residence in Khartoum with low-energy consumption is selected.
