Tiivistelmä
The purpose of this thesis work was to estimate total amount of solar energy that can be generated by installing solar PV system in Tampere University of Applied Sciences (TAMK). In addition to that, estimation of installation cost and profit or loss it makes was also carried out.
Rooftops of TAMK three buildings (A, B, C) and a parking place in front of Gym hall (L building) were categorized as the best place for setting up solar panels. Carport needs to be built so that it can support solar panels and acts as rooftops for vehicles. Using Google map distance tool, measurement of the area of rooftops and carport was carried out, which was 3833 m2.
As a result we found that a total of 955 solar panels can be installed, which generates a peak power of 239KWp. In 25 years, this solar PV system can produce 4128.5 MWh of energy making a profit of 404175 € after paying its installation cost of 215100 €. However, this profit does not cover the cost of building a carport.
This project, if considered, should be beneficial for TAMK as it produces clean energy, which definitely helps to maintain a sustainable environment.
