Abstract:
The solar PV system is the renewable energy offered in this project as a means of reducing carbon dioxide emissions at the Jabana thermal power plant. It was a hybrid power system model with a diesel generator and solar panels. The meteorological agency provided the information on sun irradiation, and the Jabana thermal plant provided information on power generated and the amount of fuel burned by the generators. Homer software was used in simulation results that proposed PV-Diesel generator system is attractive to reduce C02 emissions by 46% when compared to diesel system. Additionally, the study calculated the cost of operation and the cost of energy per unit. The diesel-photovoltaic system was found to be more appealing in terms of lowering carbon dioxide levels and generating energy at a lower cost. And power generated because this proposed hybrid system contribute 30-40% of the total generation
