Estudo da implantação de um sistema fotovoltaico em um condomínio residencial de grande porte na cidade de Curitiba-PR

Abstract

The use of alternative sources of energy for the generation of electric power has expanded a lot of in the last years in many countries. In Brazil, with the dissemination of photovoltaic technology in residential areas, commercial buildings and industries, the distributed generation has increased over the years, promoting the reduction of costs with electricity and a sustainable environment. However, the correct sizing of a photovoltaic system is important for the best performance and efficiency in the generation of solar energy, making the best use of this resource and optimizing the production of electric energy. This study presents the phases for the implantation of a grid-connected photovoltaic system in a large condominium located in the city of Curitiba, state of Paraná, with the main objective of supplying the electric power needs of the common areas of the condominium. Also presented the criteria for the sizing of a grid-connected photovoltaic system, and the expected results with the application of this system.
