A stand-alone photo voltaic (PV) system for operating a street light consists of a PV array, storage battery, controller and DC-AC inverter o which an LED bulb of 20 Watts is connected. The PV array consists of 2 modules each containing 36 single crystal Si cells, each of 10 cm diameter. Conversion efficiency of the PV cells is 11%. The battery has an efficiency of 0.82 both while charging and discharging. DC-AC inverter has an efficiency of 0.85 while discharging the energy. The PV array receives solar radiation of approximately 22,600 kJ/m? per day. i. If the controller switches on the street light at 18:00 hrs, find the time when the street light would be switched off because of complete battery discharge. Calculate the energy stored in the battery on this day. ii.
