Esign and analysis of solar power plants based onconsumption

This thesis focuses on the design and economic analysis of solar energy systems tailored to different consumer profiles. Using real consumption data from nine Organized Industrial Zone consumers and two modeled profiles, hourly and monthly production estimates were conducted. The study evaluated the required PV capacity, energy balance points, long-term bill projections, panel tilt angles, and the impact of geographical location in terms of key economic indicators such as profit per kWh, net profit per kWh, and payback period. The findings indicate that the optimal system size depends heavily on both geographic conditions and the specific energy usage patterns of the consumer. Determining the ideal panel tilt angle was shown to improve production efficiency and maximize financial gain. Consumers with high energy demand and consumption behavior that aligns well with solar generation were found to be in the most economically advantageous position. On the other hand, when systems were oversized and generated surplus energy fed back into the grid, the overall economic benefit decreased. Ultimately, the study emphasizes the importance of detailed analysis of both consumption profiles and geographical factors in solar energy investment planning.
