Summary

Introduction: Solar radiation exploitation by means of photovoltaic systems consists a reliable, environmental friendly and alternative solution for the production of electricity. Aim: This dissertation aimed to develop and implement the software which evaluates the techno-economic sizing of an autonomous photovoltaic system supplying electricity to a building. Methods: Data related to the type of dwelling, use of devices as well as other factors are entered to the program for the calculation of the mean daily energy consumption, load concurrency and the minimum battery capacity of the system. In addition, this program provides for the selection of the main system materials in order to calculate the total installation cost.Results: The software generates a pdf file where details, regarding the factors presented above, including the selected materials and the total installation cost, excluding cables, other accessories and human production cost, are presented. The software doesn’t evaluate factors related to shading, placement και restriction zones.Conclusion: This program is a reliable tool for the evaluation of the total photovoltaic system installation cost, which can be further used by the producers for a detailed presentation of the system to potential investors. Future improvement of the software may incorporate more factors as well, for complete exploitation.
