Análisis de un sistema de respaldo de energía renovable solar fotovoltaica para el alumbrado exterior del parqueadero del canal TV y Radio de la UCSG.

Abstract

The work is based on a study to improve the lighting network using renewable photovoltaic energy, the parking lot of the TV and radio Channel of the Catholic University of Santiago de Guayaquil. This system seeks to provide security to users, energy savings, protection from elements and ease of use; guaranteeing a controlled environment compared to common boards. To design the system, tools were used such as: lighting engineering study, area information gathering, component sizing, mathematical calculations to know the types of conductors to be used, which allowed the project to be captured digitally and its correct functioning to be observed. This research addressed the design of a photovoltaic system as a distributed source on the UCSG campus, being an alternative to reduce high electricity bills in its facilities and, at the same time, collaborate with the environment by generating clean energy for the Independency university. Information on the facility's current electrical consumption was collected through a service form. For the design of photovoltaic systems, the virtual tool PVsyst was used, which allows system design simulations to be carried out. Through the software and its analysis, the positive impact of the use of this generator on the UCSG's electricity bills and on the CO2 emissions that are released into the environment was determined. Through the discussion, analysis, and implementation of the results, it was concluded that the proposed system satisfactorily meets the proposed objectives.
