The solar PV powered refrigeration system has some drawbacks, including the cost of installation, performance variability caused by solar irradiation, system efficiency on less sunny days, and the loss of battery performance with time.
Solar energy can be utilised to power cooling and air-conditioning systems by two methods: electrically and thermally. In the electrical form, photovoltaic (PV) panels convert the sunlight directly into electricity to run conventional cooling systems.
Photovoltaic panels exhibit an inverse correlation with heat. As the temperature rises, the efficiency of the panel decreases. Thus, it is necessary to implement efficient cooling methods in order to improve the panel's efficiency.
In this work, a hybrid system that employs energy from solar and biogas has been designed to meet the electrical demands of one Primary school, Junior school and Panchayat ghar. The panchayat ghar has two rooms with two fans and four tube lights.
