Abstract

This paper presents a viability study of solar renewable power generation system for telecommunication tower applications. Rapid depletion of fossil fuel resources necessitated research on alternative energy sources. A solar power generation using photovoltaic system is one of the reliable alternative energy sources for conventional power generation system. Main objective of this paper is to supply uninterruptible power for telecommunication tower equipments from standalone solar power system with necessitate energy storage unit and a backup power system. The Energy Management Controller is developed using soft computing techniques which monitor the power generation from renewable source, SOC of battery bank continuously. The working rules of the monitoring system have been developed for all seasonal climatic weather conditions in India. It provides uninterrupted power during day time, improves life time of battery and minimized usage of diesel run generator. The whole system is analyzed using MATLAB / Simulink.
