Solar Power Generation for Home Using MATLAB

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: : As the demand for sustainable and renewable energy continues to grow, solar energy is projected to be a key solution to cut the world's reliance on traditional sources of energy. This paper presents an effective model for solar energy production in domestic homes using MATLAB simulation and analysis. The research is centered on the optimization and design of the solar photovoltaic (PV) system with regards to the location, sunlight exposure, efficiency of the system, and load demand. MATLAB is utilized to simulate the solar panel performance, inverters, and storage systems and give precise details on energy production, cost of the system, and savings. Weather data is also incorporated into the model to forecast daily energy production under different environmental conditions. In addition, the analysis examines the inclusion of energy storage systems like batteries, which allow homes to retain excess energy created during peak sun hours for utilization at a later time. The results show that it is both feasible and economical to implement solar power in households, as well as show potential for long-term environmental and economic advantages. This paper adds to the body of research on solar integration at the residential level, providing informative input for homeowners, policymakers, and researchers toward a sustainable future. Keywords: Solar Power Generation, MATLAB Simulation, Photovoltaic System, Energy Storage, Renewable Energy, Home Energy Management, System Optimization.
