  • Abstract
    Designing a standalone photovoltaic system (PV) for providing electricity for a residential building located at a remote area in India is carried out. Based on load requirements the sizing methods of the PV system components, PV array, controller, batteries and inverters have been mentioned. The total cost of the system is calculated based on the present market rate of the components in US dollars. The simulation of the system using interleaved ZVS (Zero Voltage Switching) converter is carried out and the results were analyzed.
