Re: [pakgrid] Reverse Metering + Solar Panels

 

Salaamun Alaikum

 

Thank you all for your precious participation/ comments:

The solar panel system can be more useful, if we use 'Reverse Metering' system:

• Govt. may help people buying solar panels on soft loans.
• Govt. may recommend/approve solar system specifications to be used.
• Distribution Companies can launch 'Reverse Metering' system. Excess energy, in the day, at end user premises may be accepted by respective grid. When end user gets advantage of energy units this will make the project feasible. End user will try to install more and more solar panel at its premises and end user will try to maintain it in a good state to get advantage of free energy.
• Generation Companies may generate more energy in the night and less in the day. Because more solar energy is available in the day.
• End user will not need a big battery bank for storage for night use.
  

Is this workable? What are your comments?

·         Train People towards energy conservation

·         Green energy production

Muhammad Asif, New Zealand   <choudhry.asif@gmail.com>

·           I wish that Reverse Metering idea move forward and red tapes removed.

 

Habib Rehman <habib@buraq.com>

 

·         System already in place in Australia.

·         It is workable solution that solves energy crisis in days.

 

Naveed Arshad <naveedarshad@gmail.com>

·         System already implemented in many countries.

·         Problem is not the technology but the willingness of the Government.

·         Best part is the environmental friendliness.

·         Nowhere in energy policy we see environmental friendliness as a criteria for measuring a technology.

Mubbashir <mubbashir_2004@yahoo.com> 

·         The proposal is implementable giving way to a free market where everyone can PRODUCE electricity.

Waqqas Akhtar <waqqas_akhtar@yahoo.com> 

·       EU have enacted "feed-in tariff" laws that require electric utility companies to make payments to solar-power producers, be they commercial power plants or private homes

·      Such tariffs have turned Germany, France and Spain into solar power leaders.

·       To encourage people to buy and install solar panels, Germany buys solar-produced energy at a fixed price guaranteed to make a profit.

·         Even Govt. takes initiative on first two points it can make a huge difference.

·         Reverse Metering can add lot of administrative and operational hassles. Although it is doable but not in the current scenario.

Adnan Ashraf <mrkaa662@gmail.com>

·         'Grid-Tied Electrical System' is used in many countries:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grid-tied_electrical_system#List_of_countries_or_regions_that_legally_allow_grid-tied_electrical_systems

·         No battery banks are required for Grid-Tied systems, this system really pays back.

·         But, Grid-Tied or Grid-Interactive systems don't work in the case of power outage.

Noman nomang@gmail.com via yahoogroups.com 

·         Its already implemented in Australia.

Asif Kidwai <kidwai99@yahoo.com> 

·         Pakistan needs to take the quality of its grid into account when planning distributed generation (and reverse metering).

Mohammad Asad <asad@buraq.com> from Buraq Integrated Solutions

·         Pakistan Engineering Council (PEC) has already implemented On-Grid Solar Power System. http://www.pec.org.pk/JICA_projBrief.aspx

·         The new energy meters which are currently being installed are supporting Reverse-Metering.

Ali Mansoor Khawaja <ali_mansoor_kh@yahoo.com> 

·         I think it is a great idea. But instead of Govt. motivate public.

·         End up not having to deal with wapda at all.
