The owner of the house described in Problem 5 would like to install a solar PV array on the roof. The rated power of the selected PV module is 250 W fort 1 kW/m2 irradiance, and the dimensions are 40 cm width and 64 cm height. How much electric energy would this array generate in one year?

Problem 5

A house has a south-facing roof area of 60-m2 with 30∘ angle in respect to the horizontal plane. The daily global horizontal irradiation (GHI) averaged over one year is 4500-Wh/m2 at the location. Estimate the yearly solar energy potential for this house.
