Instalación y documentación legal de proyectos fotovoltaicos on grid y off grid

Abstract

The technology of photovoltaic solar systems allows a more appropriate capture and transformation of energy with respect to the conventional one, to carry out those who want to save money and at the same time protect the environment, due to its properties of modularity and autonomy, low costs for maintenance and being low-polluting, today with more affordable costs for more widespread use. Likewise, due to the fact that it is a reliable source of electricity (there are no overloads that damage electrical appliances), easy to install and with a considerably long useful life, it has gained considerable ‘ground’ in the market. The design of the photovoltaic solar system basically consists of some essential elements: solar panels, on which sunlight falls to convert it into electricity; the regulator, which avoids overloads and the reduction of the useful life of the batteries - these, in turn, are responsible for accumulating the energy generated to be used in periods of little or no radiation and from where the load is fed; the inverter, which supplies electricity to the appliances in alternating current. Whoever acquires a photovoltaic installation system acquires a great responsibility: the system, although it does not require constant or costly maintenance, does need them for its proper functioning; The cleaning and maintenance of the panels contributes to the good performance of the system to avoid its deterioration and the best capture of photovoltaic energy for the maximum performance of the system. Both the maintenance of the solar panels and the technical support in the monitoring room must be carried out by people with the appropriate knowledge. This is where the knowledge acquired during the undergraduate degree in Electronic Engineering at the Santo Tomás University is put into practice.
