Análisis para la Implementación de la Micro Generación Fotovoltaica en el Casco Urbano de la Ciudad de Cuenca con Base en la Regulación Arconel – 003/18

Abstract

The work consists of an analysis of the photovoltaic potential in the residences of the city of Cuenca, using information from mono and polycrystalline silicon panels, to then contrast these results with the real consumption of the users. To do this, a specific residential sector of the city is taken as a sample, connected to a distribution transformer.

One or more systems with photovoltaic microgeneration are proposed which can be connected to the electrical distribution network, such production will be used to cover all of the energy demand or a part of it, according to the subscriber's requirements. Likewise, an analysis of this distribution network will be carried out by simulation using OPENDSS software to know the impacts generated by these microgenerators on it.

Finally, an economic and financial feasibility analysis will be prepared on the implementation of microgeneration and its measurement system (net metering) in the selected area.

Through these analyzes, the objective is to know the impact that photovoltaic microgeneration would have on a distribution network in the city of Cuenca, and provide new information on the physical, technical and economic conditions that could be improved from the current ARCONEL- 003/18 regulation so that its successful application can be possible in the city or in the rest of the country.
