Battery Sizing
Total appliance use = (18 watts x 4 hours)+(60 watts x 2hours) x (75 watts
x 12 hours)
Nominal voltage = 12 volts
Days of autonomy = 3 days
Note: Battery lost = 0.85 ; Depth of charge = 0.60 ; Nominal battery voltage = 12V

Example 1 :
How much ampere hour is generated per day with 55 Wp PV module in the area when 5 hours
of peak hours are obtain?
Wp actual = k x 55 Wp = 0.8 x 55Wp = 44 Wp
Wh = Wp actual x Peak hours = 44 Wp x 5.0 h = 220 Wh
Ah = Wh/12V = 220 Wh / 12 V = 18.3 Ah
Example 2 :
How much ampere-hour is available for discharge if all generated power is stored in a battery
with 55Wp PV module?
From Ex 1. 18.3 Ah is obtain as generated power
Ah discharged = Ah generated x ampere-hour efficiency
= 18.3 Ah x 0.8 = 14.6 Ah
