Load Estimated :1000W
Duration of operation:12 hr
Then Total Watts Required:1000x12 = 12,000

Duration of Solar Panel Exposed to Sun:8 hr
Therefore Solar Panel Wattage 12,000W/ 8
hr = 1500W
Now, Number of Solar Panels required, if
150 W are to be used.
Number of Solar Panels:1500W/150W=10No.

15. For Design of 1000W charge controller for
Solar & wind system.
Supply: P = V I
Where,
I is the expected Charging Current.
V is the Voltage of Battery = 12 V
P is the Power Supply Rating = 1,000 W.
Hence I = P/V = 1000 W/12 V = 83.3 A.
Since 83.3 A Charge Controllers are not
readily available in market . Hence 100 A
Charge Controller will be used.

16. Total Load P = 1000 W
Duration of Operation = 12 hr
Watt Hour Capacity = 1000 W x 12 hr = 12000W- hr.
To improve the life of battery , it is assumed that it
retains only quarter (¼) capacity,
i.e. 12,000/ ¼ = 48,000 W hr.
The choice of Battery depends on AH rating.
If we use 1500 AH rating with 12 V.
Then, 48,000 W hr
1,500 AH
