1. INTRODUCTION:
With about 300 clear, sunny days in a year, India's solar power reception, on only
its land area, is about 5,000 trillion kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year (or 5 EWh/yr).[7]
[8][9]
The daily average solar energy incident over India varies from 4 to 7
kWh/m2 with about 1,500–2,000 sunshine hours per year (depending upon
location), which is far more than current total energy consumption. For example,
assuming the efficiency of PV modules were as low as 16%, this would still be a
thousand times greater than the domestic electricity demand projected for 2015.
Thus harnessing of non polluting renewable energy resources to control green
house gases, it is a need of the hour to harness the non polluting renewable
energy resources. A significant part of the large potential of solar energy in the
country could be developed by promoting the grid connected solar photovoltaic
power system of varying sizes as per the need and affordability cou[led with
ensuring adequate return on investment. It has been proposed to set up a 500
KWh grid connected solar photovoltaic power plant on the roof of the shed of
M/s. V. D. Paper mills Ltd., Village Umaran, Rania Industrial area, Kanpur dehat.
The 200KWh SPV system at roof-top of M/s. V. D. Paper mills Ltd., Village
Umaran, Rania Industrial area, Kanpur dehat, is estimated to afford annual
energy generation of 268.8 MWh and oprate at a capacity factor of 19%. The SPV system
estimated cost Rs. 180 Lakhs would have a levelised tariff of Rs. 6.71 KWh based on KESCO
norms.

2. LOCATION:
M/s. V. D. Paper mills Ltd., is situated on the right-side (Northern side) of the link-Road, and at
the right side (west side) of the NH-2. It is in the premises of Village Umaran, Rania Industrial
area, Distt. Kanpur-Rural.

3. SITE DESCRIPTION:
The M/s. V. D. Paper mills Ltd., Village Umaran, Rania Industrial area, Kanpur dehat has Two
wings. One at The Left side(Southern Side) of the Link Road and other at the Right
side(Northern side) of the road. The roof top of the shed, i.e. on the Right has an area of 40mt.
X 80mt. (3,200 mt2). Theis are could be used for SPV installation. It is proposed to utilize the
vacant area available for the installation of 200 KWh, which could serve as a grid connected
Piolet-system and could be used for collection of data for the analysis on availability of solar
power.

4. EXISTING POWERSUPPLY ARRANGEMENTS:

5. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION OF SPV POWER SYSTEM:

5.1 The solar PV System shall be designed with either mono/Poly crystalline silicon modules
or using thin film photovoltaic cells or any other superior technology having higher
efficiency.

5.2 Three key elements in a solar cell form the basis of their manufacturing technology. The
first is the semiconductor, which absorbs the sun’s Incident-light and converts it in to
electron-hole pairs. The second is the semiconductor junction, which separates the photo-
generated carriers (Electron and Holes), and the third is the contacts on the front and
back of the cell that allow the current to flow to the external circuit. The two main
categories of technology are defined by the choice of the semiconductor: either crystalline
silicon in a wafer form or thin film of other materials.

5.3 The grid interactive roof top solar PV System generally comprises the following
equipments.
i- SPV Power source.
ii- Inverter (PCU).
iii- Mounting Structure.
iv- AC and DC Cables.
v- Earthing equipments and materials.
vi- Junction Boxes & combiners.
vii- Transformer.
viii- Instruments and protection equipments.

5.4 Photovoltaic solar system uses the light available from sun to generate electricity and
feed this to the main electric grid or the load as the case may be. The PV Panels
convert the light reaching them in to DC Power. The amount of power they produce is
roughly proportional to the intensity and angle of the light reaching them. They are
therefore positioned to take maximum advantage of available sunlight within sitting
constraints. Maximum power is obtained when the panels are able to track the sun’s
movements during the day and the various seasons. However, these tracking devices
tend to add a fair cost of the system, so a most of installations either have fixed panels
or compromise by incorporating some limited manual adjustments, which take into
account the different “elevations” of the sun at various times of the year. The best
elevations vary with the latitude of the location.

5.5 The power generating capacity of a photovoltaic system is denoted in Kilowatt peak
(measured at stand test conditions of solar radiation of 1000W per m 2 ). A common rule
of thumb is that average power is equal to 20% of peak power, so that each peak
kilowatt of solar array output power corresponds to energy production of 4.8 KWh. Per
day (24 Hours X 1 kW X 20% = 20%).

5.6 Solar Photovoltaic modules can be developed in various combinations developing upon
the requirements of the voltage and power output to be taken from the solar plant. No.
of cells and module may vary depending upon the manufacturer’s prudent practice.

5.7 Inverter (Power Conditioning Unit):

i- The DC power produced is fed to inverter for conversion into AC.

ii- The output of the inverter must synchronized automatically its AC output to the
exact AC Voltage and frequency of the grid.
iii- Inverter Efficiency of 94% is considered in the PV System.

5.8 Protection and Controls:

i Inverter shall be provided with islanding protection to isolate it from the grid in case
of no supply, under voltage, over voltage conditions so that in no case there is any
chance of accident.
ii In addition to above, PV system shall be provided with adequate rating fuses,
fuses on inverter input side (DC) as well as output side (AC) side for overload and
short circuit protection and disconnection switches to isolate the DC and AC
system for maintenance are needed.
iii Fuses of adequate rating shall also be provided in each solar array module to
protect them against short circuit.

6. Arrangement:

The general layout arrangement of the SPV panels is shown in the drawing given at
Exhibit– iii and installation details of the panels are shown in the Exhibit – iv.

7. Annual Energy Generation:

The annual energy generation from the SPV power plant has been worked out on the data
on mean global solar radiant exposure over Kanpur Dehat Distt. The mean global solar
radiant exposure varies from 3.74 kWh/m2/day in the month of Augusta to 6.58
kWh/m2/day in the month of May. The month-wise mean global solar radiant
exposure is given at Annex-I. Considering the efficiency of PV modules at 16% and
temperature coefficient of 4.4% per C 0, the annual energy generation feed into the grid is
estimated as 268.8 MWh. This takes into consideration an efficiency of power conditioning
Unit (PCU) as 94% and losses in the DC and AC system as 3% each upto the point of
interconnection. The month wise energy generation during the year is given at Annex – II
and shown below.

The annual capacity utilization factor works out as 19.2%. The month wise
capacity utilization factor also shown in the Annex – iii

8. Integration Of PV Power with Grid:

8.1 The output power from SPV would be fed to the inverter (PCU), which
converts DC produced by SPV array to AC power and feed it to the main
electricity grid after synchronization. In case of grid failure, or low or high
voltage, solar PV system shall be out of synchronization and shall be
disconnected from the grid. Once the DG set comes in to service PV
system shall again be synchronized with DG supply and Load
requirement would be met to the extent of availability of power.

8.2 The inverter (PCU) shall have the software and controls capable of
operating the complete system for safe and efficient operation and
includes the Islanding protection, Over Voltage / Under Voltage
protection, Ground fault / short circuit protection system, communication
equipments such as modems, web-box etc, DC reverse polarity
protection, grid monitoring of all the phases & pole sensitive residual
current monitoring unit, protection against voltage fluctuations in the grid
protection against internal faults in the power conditioner, operational
errors and switching transients etc.

8.3 The output power from inverter would be fed to the main panel. The
solar power would be used locally in M/s. V. D. PAPER MILLS PVT.
LTD. VILLAGE “UMRAN”, RANIA, DISTT. KANPUR-DEHAT, on working
days to the extent load in the plant / building, and the generation over
and above the requirement would be fed in to the grid. On The week-
ends and other holidays, almost the entire energy from SPV module
would be fed into the grid. The connection of the grid connected SPV
power plant with the existing power supply system is shown in the
diagram on the next page.

9. Metering Scheme:

9.1 The above project is demonstration project as such measurement is

proposed to be carried out on small intervals. It is to measure the solar
Gross generation on per day basis besides measurements of DC
battery voltages, DC Current, AC system voltages and current,
frequency, total harmonics current and voltage distortion etc.

9.2 An import / Export meter has already been installed by DVVNL at the
entry point of 11 KV incomer for metering for billing purpose which
would also serve the purpose of registering the net export and import to
the grid. A meter would also be installed at the output side of the
inverter (PCU) to register the energy output from SPV power plant. The
meter would have necessary register for recording and storing the
information on 15 minutes time interval basis. This operational data of
SPV power plant shall be used for analysis .

10. Power Quality Requirements:
