    Metodología para determinar el precio de comercialización de la energía producida por una central fotovoltaica conectada a la red
    (2016) Herrera Molina, Santiago Martin; Sarmiento Vintimilla, Juan Carlos
    Given de boom of renewable energy around the world, as an alternative solution to reducing the greenhouse gases, in the fight against the climate change, this research proposes a methodology detailing the need for pre-feasibility study of a photovoltaic plant.To do this, first the legal frameworkunder which the functioning and operation of these plants referred to in Ecuador is analyzed. The methodology is based on two analyzes; one concerning the technical calculation of the size of photovoltaic systems connected to the electric grid, and another focused on the economic evaluation of the project, to determinate a selling process of energy, that is profitable on investment. In the development of this thesis applied technical and economic criteria of reality of Ecuador´s electricity sector are presented. For this study a photovoltaic generation project arises whit real information from the weather station owned by the company ELECAUSTRO S.A. Quotes applied to both domestic and international manufactures and suppliers of all materials and equipment needed for installation. Administration, operation and maintenance are also estimated with reference to a plant of similar capacity. This information could be established several cases of financing with different prices energy trading, thus obtaining a specific proposal for the casestudy.
