Solar radiation on photovoltaics panel arranging angles and orientation

Abstract

For a comply the needs of electrical energy in office buildings, there needs to reduce from fossil energy to renewable energy. Photovoltaic panels are devices that convert sunlight and solar radiation into electricity. For the application, this device it is necessary to study so that the panel can work effectively. The aspects that influence the use, there are the geographical location, the slope of the panel, the orientation of the building, and the shading of surrounding objects. This study examines these aspects to get a mass configuration that can adapt from the application of photovoltaic panels. By using Simulation from the Formit application, this study obtained a mass configuration that can reduce 18% of the electrical energy for office building approach in South Jakarta
