ABSTRACT
Solar mini grids are a promising solution for providing electricity to remote communities that are not connected to the main grid. They are more affordable and environmentally friendly than diesel generators, and they can be scaled to meet the needs of small or large communities. This project presents a simulation study of a solar mini grid for a remote community in Africa. The simulation was conducted using the PVSyst software package. The results show that the solar mini grid can provide reliable and affordable electricity to the community. The cost of the solar mini grid is significantly lower than the cost of a diesel generator system, and the environmental impact is much smaller. The simulation study also shows that the solar mini grid can be scaled to meet the growing needs of the community. As the community grows, more solar panels and batteries can be added to the system to increase the capacity. This makes the solar mini grid a sustainable solution for providing electricity to remote communities.
