Implementation of modified AHP coupled with MOORA methods for modeling and optimization of solar photovoltaic (PV)-pumped hydro energy storage (PHS) system parameter is presented in this chapter. Work optimized the parameters, namely unmet energy (UE), size of PV-panel, and volume of upper reservoir (UR), to get economic cost of energy (COE) and excess energy (EE). The trail no.11 produces the highest assessment values compared to the other trails and provides EE as 16.19% and COE as 0.59 $/kWh for PV-PHS. ANOVA and parametric study is also performed to determine the significance of the parameters for PV-PHS performance. Investigation results indicate the effectiveness and significant potential for modeling and optimization of PV-PHS system and other solar energy systems.

Indonesia has enormous solar radiation potential, and it can be converted to electrical energy by utilizing solar PV systems. Mainly the irrigation of paddy rice fields in Indonesia dependent on a diesel-powered water pumping system. A solar PV system can replace this method, and it generates several benefits. The present study proposed the utilization of a solar PV system to drive the water pump based on a 100% renewable power supply. The technological and economic viability assessment of solar PV water pumping system to irrigate paddy rice filed at Telang village, Bangkalan, Indonesia, is investigated. The HOMER software has been used to generate the optimal configuration of a renewable system. Initial capital, net present cost, and cost of energy will evaluate as economic assessment criteria. The solar PV and diesel generator water pumping system also compared. The results showed that for water pumping systems, a solar PV system is more cost-effective than a diesel generator. It has lower annual operational and maintenance costs, 100% renewable energy penetration, and free energy cost.

The project designs a microgrid based on downtown community of El Monte city, California. The system main components include a solar PV system, a battery, a diesel generator, an inverter, a control system, and loads. The microgrid design is simulated using MATLAB Simulink. The results show that the microgrid can supply power to its community adequately and independently without relying on a utility power grid. The microgrid is smart as it can operate autonomously thanks to its automatic control system. For various operational scenarios, the microgrid proves to be resilient where it can supply its load demand successfully using its solar system, battery, and diesel generator. The load voltage is kept at satisfactory values of around 1.0 per unit. The power distribution efficiency is around 99%. The results contribute to development of smart microgrids which, in turn, improve the reliability and resiliency of large power grids, as well as provide energy independence to communities

Indonesia plans to build solar PV plants to reach 6500 MW capacity by 2025. One of the solar PV applications is systems with battery storage systems. In this system, the battery is an important component of the solar PV system as it stores the energy for use when the sun is unavailable. This article reviews the status of batteries in Indonesia to support the proliferation of solar PV applications. The objective is to compile a battery database for solar PV applications. The database provides insight into technology and the availability of batteries. The database consists of 361 batteries of various technologies such as FLA, VRLA, VRLA gel, VRLA AGM, and Lithium-ion. The most widely available is the VRLA gel. In terms of voltage, batteries are available at 2 to 12 volts and with capacity from 1 to 3000 Ah. The availability of batteries shows that this field is ready to support the development of solar PV with energy storage although the field of battery recycling or its waste management requires more attention.

Sunlight is energy that can be converted into electrical energy. One of the uses is by applying it to the roof ofthe building. The application in this building has restrictions such as the placement of the PV moduleshorizontally and vertically. In the study comparing the results of energy obtained from the PV system withhorizontal and vertical positions with a standard degree angle in the direction of azimuth sunlight. Positionusing the horizontal produces more energy and reaches a performance ratio of more than 80%.
