Abstract
The present work aims to study the design of a solar photovoltaic installation that has been interconnected to the electricity grid at a residence located in Itajubá, Minas Gerais, by using technologies which are available in the market and following the public policies on its implementation. It is based on a single-family home, thence it is considered an average price of electricity demand from a bill supplied by the local electricity agency. Furthermore, data on sunlight potential in the region has been collected, thus it was designed a project aimed at implementing a photovoltaic system (PV) facility which is able to supply the required local demand. An economic feasibility analysis has also been performed by considering actual data of a PV system installed in this residence, current electricity charges, and investment cost with current data on the Brazilian market so as to calculate some decision-making parameters, such as Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Net Present Value (NPV) and their respective Payback. On the other hand, it was also assessed legal and political issues in order to depict the Brazilian scenario as regards the implementation of new photovoltaic solar projects for homes.
