Energy is the one of the basic
needs in order to survive since human existence. The vast majority of this
energy is derived from fosil fuels. The increase in energy demand, the limited resources,
and harmful effect of diesel fuels on the environment have forced to research for
alternative energy sources. Solar energy which is used instead of fossil fuels
is one of the most popular alternative energy sources. Photovoltaic cell
systems are used to convert the solar energy into the electricity energy
directly. These systems consist of solar panels, batteries, charge regulators
and inverters. In this study, photovoltaic cell system was installed to supply
the electricity demand of a house (4400 Wh/day) in Erdemli, Mersin and the cost
of the system was calculated. To provide the electricity demand, six solar
panels having the capacity of 165W, one battery with 400Ah, one inverter having
the capacity of 1000VA and one charge regulator with 1000W were used. The solar
panels which are effective on the system efficiency were placed with an angle
of 59.68° between the panel and ground. The price of energy provided by
Photovoltaic cell system was calculated as 0.010070TL/Wh
and the price of mains electricity of Enerjisadetermined by EPDK was about
0.230995 TL/Wh. The life of photovoltaic cell systems is about 25 years and the
invoice cost of this system with interest was calculated for 25 years. The cost
of system was 61261.94 TL less than the invoice cost. This finding showed that
the usage of photovoltaic cell system is quite profitable.
