Contact UsIn the Bamenda Municipality of the North West Region of Cameroon, many a households are adopting Solar Photovoltaic Systems (SPVS) to meet their household energy challenges. Users' satisfaction is crucial for the success of these SPVS in the Bamenda Municipality .
In the Bamenda Municipality of Cameroon households are adopting Solar Photovoltaic Systems (SPVS). The penetration of SPVS in this Municipality depends on their technical performance. The study aimed to evaluate the technical installation of SPVS within the Municipality. A field inspection and administration of a questionnaire was conducted.
Rooftops and/or remote PV systems are not easily serviceable. PV systems must include associated power electronics to work properly with minimal maintenance requirements. Placing panels directly on the roofs without enough aeration will lead to high heat.
Angle of Tilt of the PV Array All of the SPVS in the Bamenda Municipality had fixed solar panels, i.e., the PV array does not have any mechanisms for the track of the sun. From equations (1) and (2), the angle of inclination for fixed solar panels for Bamenda should range from 8.0° to 17.0° for optimum performance throughout the year.
Only 18 % were installed by a solar energy company or an electrician and 5 % by freelance solar energy engineers. Up to 9 % of the SPVS systems were installed by the users. Figure 6 shows the share of the expertise used in the installation of the SPVS. Expertise used in the installation of the SPVS. 4.1.6.
Like other areas of the country, the Bamenda Municipality experiences frequency electricity outages. Such outages have push households to seek alternative electrical energy sources. The SPVS is one of such alternative electrical energy sources in households in Cameroon.
