Performance on Solar Rooftop System Under DPDC

Abstract

This research is an attempt to find out the appropriateness of Solar Rooftop system (SRS). Solar rooftop system is the simplest way to reduce the waste of electricity and to keep the environment green. In this study and survey period, this was the initial basis to research whether the users of the system are taking it in a positive way or not. The study mainly focuses on the importance of the system, benefits and prospect. Solar energy has been the most favorable resource of renewable energy to improve the continuing unavailability of electricity. In this context, the composition of Solar Rooftop system related works is reviewed and later on, the methods and measures of the collected data from various fields of Narayanganj are described elaborately. About 25 solar rooftop systems formed in Fatullah, killarpool, Chashara, Nitaigonj in Narayanganj area have been randomly surveyed. The entire study is mainly based on the data collected from these surveys. After the long process of collecting data and bringing them together, the survey has managed to find out some important outcomes. Initially, the primary aim of the study was to find out the Consumer information, operation details, in which purpose they use the system, and afterwards, they‘re asked whether they are satisfied with the system or not. It is found that a majority of the people are completely dissatisfied with the system. After all, the effectiveness of the system was discussed in brief to influence them to come to know about the appropriateness of the system and the proper way to maintain the system. It is seen that a few among them find the system useful and want to increase its capacity. The operating condition and maintenance of the SRS was evaluated as well. Most of the interviewed people do not either maintain the system or want to repair it. It is very unfortunate that most of the systems were found inactive or not connected in a proper way. Although urban people are more likely to know the efficient use of solar energy, they still prefer fossil fuels for their power generation. In this manner, they are indirectly contributing to environmental hazards and wasting a lot of money too. From the reading of an installed solar system, the cost per unit is calculated later as an example. However, the appropriateness of the system to the consumer is very limited due to having a lack of knowledge and training to operate the system productively.
