Modelling distributed photovoltaic system with and without battery storage: A case study in Belem, northern Brazil

This paper focuses on simulating photovoltaic PV electricity output and the economics analysis of distributed grid-connected systems with and without battery in the city of Belem, northern Brazil. The work used the System Advisor Model to perform all simulations including the financial evaluation which was calculated using the levelised cost of electricity (LCOE), payback period, and net present value (NPV). The electricity output performance...
