Continuing with your design of a stand-alone system for a residence 5 miles off-grid, in a clearing in the woods, in the vicinity of your city.Choose any place on 18'th latitude Do an inventory of all the electricall powered artifacts in vour residence. Conjecture a daily load profile for two seasons of the year - worst month and best month for solar flux rat vour nixed arrav tilt) your pv array and battery storage such that you have but a 1% chance of depleting the bat- terv. Note: take the probabilities for a good dav and a bad dav as those vou obtained assuming a horizontal attay and given your specitied load but now size the array using the flux at whatever tilt you choose - keep. ing the difference of the mean array output at tilt and the load the same. Cost out your system, using the web as a resource. Determine if there are any federal or state incentives for installing photovoltaics. If available, how do these change your cost estimates?

You are to write a final report, summarizing the results of the assigned exercises. This should include a section corresponding roughly to each exercise, i.e 1. Introduction 2.1 The Solar Resource for [Your Site] Kt the clearness index. 2.2 The Solar Resource - at tilt = latitude. 3. PV Array size - attending to loss of load probability. 4. Electrical load specification and battery storage requirements. 5. Benefits and costs: Compare net present value of benefit stream with initial cost. Include financial incentives, if available. 1 6. Conclusion. 7. Appendix This is to be a coherent report, not simply a pasting together of all that you have done before. Each section should state all assumptions, fix the context in general terms, and present the results of your analyses. You are to include the details of your analysis and spreadsheets in the Appendix. Make sure you reference all sources. Note: if you want to include any of the graphs please let me know and I will make them available in png format (or gif or jpeg if you pre-fer)
