(a) Defend why you support the renewable energy system over the conventional system for electricity generation? (3 marks) (b) A small standalone PV system has been designed for a house where the system could generate power of 1576 Wh/day from four PV panels. (Panel power generation factor is 4.3) (1) (ii) Estimate the power consumption demand of that house. Estimate the total Watt-peak rating of the PV modules. (2 marks) (2marks) (c) A wind energy system has been designed for AB years of operation. The designed system has a wind turbine of power 600 kW which costs is $450,000. Estimate the Levelized cost of electricity generated by this wind energy system. (Capacity factor: 28.54%) (AB is the last two digits of your new matric number) (d) Evaluate the common problem in PV system electrical design. (5 marks) (3 marks)
