Study of The Potential for Installing a Solar Power Plant on The Roof of The Temanggung Regional Library Building

Abstract

Due to its equatorial location, solar energy is one of Indonesia's renewable energy sources, which has great potential. Solar Power Plant (PLTS) is a power generation system that uses renewable energy as its primary input, which photovoltaic cells aid to convert into electrical energy. The rooftop PLTS is a development of solar panels that are currently commonly used by the general population. Calculating the potential for electrical energy from a rooftop photovoltaic system (PLTS) was the aim of the study, which was conducted at the Regional Library Building in Temanggung Regency, Central Java. With PVsyt software (version 7.2.6), the potential of rooftop solar power plants may be calculated. The grid-connected rooftop photovoltaic system has the capacity to produce 4859 kWh of electrical energy annually, according to the analysis that was done. The PLTS system has an overall efficiency of 82.05%.
