Özet
In this study, a techno-economic analysis of offgrid PV LED road lighting systems is made for Antalya province of Turkey. DIALux software is used for road lighting calculations and HOMER software is used in modelling, sizing, and optimization of the energy systems. Calculations are made to determine whether maximum or minimum pole spacing options for both twin-bracket central and opposite lighting arrangements provide the optimal system design for off-grid PV LED road lighting systems under the M3 lighting class in Antalya. The techno-economic analysis of the energy system in case of dimming LED luminaires after midnight is made. Since the payback periods of the systems are found to be above the system lifetime (20 years) with and without dimming, in addition to the current case, future projections, in which electricity unit prices increase and cost of PV system component and battery costs decrease, are examined.
