GRID INTERACTIVE ROOF TOP SOLAR PHOTOVOLTAIC POWER PLANT
AT CEA HEADQUARTER AT SEWA BHAWAN, R.K. PURAM, NEW DELHI
1. INTRODUCTION:
2. LOCATION:
Sewa Bhawan is situated in the West Block area at R.K.Puram in New Delhi
bounded by inner ring road (Mahatma Gandhi road) in the north and outer ring
road in the south and the Bhikaji Cama place on the east. Sewa Bhawan
houses the head office of Central Electricity Authority, Central Water
Commission, Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE), Registrar office of census
and sub-offices of CPWD. The location of the site is shown in the Exhibit – I.
3. SITE DESCRIPTION:
The Sewa Bhawan has two wings known as north wing and south wing. The
lay out of the rooftop terrace is shown in the Exhibit – II. The terrace on the
north block has communication antennas and an area of about 375 sq meters
is vacant which could be used for SPV installation of 25 kWp. The terrace of
the south wing having an area of about 1000 sq. meters is vacant and could
also be used for larger size SPV installation. It is proposed to utilize the vacant
area available on the north wing for installation of 25 kWp which could serve as
a grid connected demonstration system and could be used for collection of
data for analysis on the of availability of solar power. The development on the
south wing terrace could be taken up later.

A 62.5 kVA DG set has also been installed to provide standby supply to the
Data Centre located on the 3rd floor and Servers of Network Operation Control
(NOC) Centre of NIC located on the 5th floor in the event of failure of Mains
power supply. This DG set has been arranged on hire-purchase basis and its
O&M is carried out by the vendor itself.
The load of CEA is fed from transformer (Tr-3 &Tr-4) through LT feeders. LT
system is maintained by CPWD. The single line diagram of the supply system
is given below.

5.1 The solar PV system shall be designed with either mono/ poly crystalline
silicon modules or using thin film photovoltaic cells or any other superior
technology having higher efficiency.
5.2 Three key elements in a solar cell form the basis of their manufacturing
technology. The first is the semiconductor, which absorbs light and converts
it into electron-hole pairs. The second is the semiconductor junction, which
separates the photo-generated carriers (electrons and holes), and the third
7
is the contacts on the front and back of the cell that allow the current to flow
to the external circuit. The two main categories of technology are defined
by the choice of the semiconductor: either crystalline silicon in a wafer form
or thin films of other materials.
5.3 The grid interactive roof top solar PV system generally comprises the
following equipment.
5.4 Photovoltaic solar system use the light available from the sun to generate
electricity and feed this into the main electricity grid or load as the case may
be. The PV panels convert the light reaching them into DC power. The
amount of power they produce is roughly proportional to the intensity and
the angle of the light reaching them. They are therefore positioned to take
maximum advantage of available sunlight within siting constraints.
Maximum power is obtained when the panels are able to 'track' the sun's
movements during the day and the various seasons. However, these
tracking mechanisms tend to add a fair bit to the cost of the system, so a
most of installations either have fixed panels or compromise by
incorporating some limited manual adjustments, which take into account the
different 'elevations' of the sun at various times of the year. The best
elevations vary with the latitude of the load location.
5.7 Inverter
ii. The output of the inverter must synchronize automatically its AC output to
the exact AC voltage and frequency of the grid.
8
5.8 Protection and Controls:
iii. Fuses of adequate rating shall also be provided in each solar array
module to protect them against short circuit.
6. ARRANGEMENT :
The general layout arrangement of the SPV panels is shown in the drawing
given at Exhibit – III and installation details of the panels are shown in the
Exhibit - IV.
The annual energy generation from the SPV power plant has been worked out
based on the data on mean global solar radiant exposure over Delhi at
2
Safdarjung. The mean global solar radiant exposure varies from 3.72 kWh/m
2
/day in the month of December to 7.08 kWh/m /day in the month of May. The
month-wise mean global solar radiant exposure is given at Annex-I.
Considering the efficiency of PV module at 16% and temperature coefficient of
o
4.4 % per C, the annual energy generation feed into the grid is estimated as
42 MWh. This takes into consideration an efficiency of the Power Conditioning
Unit (PCU) as 94% and losses in the DC and AC system as 3% each up to the
point of interconnection. The month wise energy generation during the year is
given at Annex-II and shown below.
9
The energy available from the Plant would vary from a minimum of 3.33 MWh
during the month of January to a maximum of 4.13 MWh during the month of
March .
The annual capacity utilization factor works out as 19.2%. The month wise
capacity utilization factor is also shown in the Annex-III.
8.1 The out put power from SPV would be fed to the inverter which converts DC
produced by SPV array to AC and feeds it into the main electricity grid after
synchronization. In case of grid failure, or low or high voltage, solar PV
system shall be out of synchronization and shall be disconnected from the
grid. Once the DG set comes into service PV system shall again be
synchronized with DG supply and load requirement would be met to the
extent of availability of power.
10
8.2 Inverter shall have the software and controls capable of operating the
complete system for safe and efficient operation and includes the Islanding
protection, Over voltage/ under voltage protection, Ground fault /short circuit
protection system, communication equipment such as modems, web box etc,
DC reverse polarity protection, Grid monitoring of all the phases & pole
sensitive residual current monitoring unit, protection against voltage
fluctuations in the grid & protection against internal faults in the power
conditioner, operational errors and switching transients etc.
8.3 The out put power from inverter would be fed to the panel of 180 KVA DG set
at CPWD S/S at Sewa Bhawan. The solar power would be used locally in
Sewa Bhawan on working days to the extent of load in the building and the
generation over and above the requirement of the building would be fed into
the grid. On the week end and other holidays, almost the entire energy from
the SPV module would be fed into the grid. The connection of the grid
connected SPV power plant with the existing power supply system is shown
in the diagram below.

9. METERING SCHEME:
10.1 DC Injection into the grid: The injection of DC power into the grid shall be
avoided by using an isolation transformer at the output of the inverter. It is
proposed to limit DC injection within 1% of the rated current of yhe inverter
as per IEC 61727.
ii. The limits for harmonics shall be as stipulated in the CEA Regulations on
grid connectivity which are as follows:
13
10.4 Voltage Fluctuations
(i) The permissible limit of voltage fluctuation for step changes which
may occur repetitively is 1.5%.
(ii) For occasional fluctuations other than step changes the maximum
permissible limits is 3%.
(iii) The limits prescribed in (i) and (ii) above shall come into force not
later than five years from the date of publication of these regulations
in the Official Gazette.
11.4 Data logger system and the software for study of effect of various
environmental & grid parameters on energy generated by the solar system
and various analysis would be required to be provided.
14
11.5The communication interface shall be suitable to be connected to local
computer and also remotely via the Web using either a standard modem or a
GSM / WIFI modem.
The Tariff for the sale of energy from the SVP Power Plant at Sewa Bhawan
has been worked out considering that equity ratio of 70:30. The interest rate
on the loan has been adopted as 12.79 % based on the prime landing rate
(PLR) as per CERC. The salvage value of the project has been considered at
10% and the depreciation has been based on the differential depreciation
approach as per the CERC Notification dated 16th September, 2009. The
depreciation of 7% has been adopted during the 1st 10 years and based on
straight-line method for remaining useful life. The interest rate on the working
capital has been adopted as 13.79 % based on the prime lending rate of
CERC. The working capital has been worked out based on the CERC norms.
The O & M expenses have been adopted at the rate of Rs.9 lakh / MW for the
first year operation and escalated @ 5.72% / annum. The data sheet
indicating the various parameters adopted in the computation of the Tariff as
per CERC norms is enclosed as Annex-.IV.
The computations for tariff have been made in the Performa template given in
the CERC Notification. The computations are enclosed at Annex-V.
The cost of generation at different discount rates using discounted cash flow
studies works out as under.
