A sizing method for stand-alone PV installations with variable demand

Renewable Energy, 2008, vol. 33, issue 5, 1049-1055

Abstract: The practical applicability of the considerations made in a previous paper to characterize energy balances in stand-alone photovoltaic systems (SAPV) is presented. Given that energy balances were characterized based on monthly estimations, the method is appropriate for sizing installations with variable monthly demands and variable monthly panel tilt (for seasonal estimations).
