PERANCANGAN PEMBANGKIT LISTRIK TENAGA SURYA SEBAGAI SUPPLY DAYA UNTUK POMPA AIR

Abstract

In the design of this solar power plant, water is a basic need for every human being, both for drinking, cooking, bathing, washing, farming and so on. To reduce the use of electrical energy from the government, it is necessary to use alternative energy sourced from the sun. In this study, a shimizu PS-128 BIT water pump was used with a power of 125 watts to raise water from a well with a depth of 9 meters. This water pump is planned to operate an average of 2 times per day and the maximum operating time is approximately 1 hour. From the results of research using 200 Wp solar panels, 1000 watt inverters and 12 volt 80 Ah batteries for 7 days, the average total energy produced by 200 Wp solar panels is 257.4 Wh per day. The highest yield on August 2, 2022 received energy of 313.9 Wh and the lowest on August 7, 2022 of 150.8 Wh. The water pump can run for 1 hour to produce a volume of 520 liters of water for 4 days while 2 days produce a volume of 346.6 liters in 40 minutes and one day to produce a volume of 260 liters in 30 minutes.
