Abstract :
Indonesia is located in the equator, so it has two seasons, namely the rainy season and the dry season. Indonesia has the potential to utilize this energy to be converted into electrical energy. PLTS (Solar Power Plant) is a power plant that utilizes solar energy using the main tool, namely a solar module. Solar modules are devices that can convert solar energy into electrical energy, this process is called the photovoltaic effect. PLTS can be installed in buildings, apartments, houses, factories, and vacant land. The purpose of installing PLTS is to reduce electricity consumption from the network to reduce monthly electricity bills. PLTS On?Grid is a PLTS configuration system that is connected to the network with the KWh EXIM tool which functions to send the excess electricity generated by PLTS to the network. In general, On-Grid PLTS is installed on the roof of the house. This aims to save land and there are no objects that will block the solar module. There are many requirements for installing PLTS on the roof of the house such as the location of the area, the direction of the roof of the house, the area of the roof to which the solar module will be installed, and the slope of the solar module. These requirements serve to optimize the performance of the solar module. In this study, 15 units of 200 Wp polycrystalline solar modules were used to meet the needs of the house's electrical load. The installation of solar panels on the roof of the house is flat and the area required is 20 m². In addition, the installation of solar panels is arranged in series on a string containing 15 units of solar modules. The total energy produced in a day is 18877.65 Wh.
