Basic DC solar PV system
Energy Needs Total process energy = 19.3 MJ + inefficiencies Total process power = 300 W + inefficiencies
PV components Panels – need ~500 Watts Charge Controller – 12V at 50 Amps Deep Cycle Battery –12V ~35 Ah
Charge Controller
Total Cost PV panels = $440 plus shipping? Charge Controller = $87 Deep Cycle Battery = $65 + shipping Wiring (estimated) = $20 Total cost = $612
Notes/comments This will take 2 days to complete process Do we need a PV panel(s) that outputs 12V or will any voltage work (compatible with charge controller?)
