Modeling, Load Profile Validation, and Assessment of Solar-Rooftop Energy Potential for Low-and-Moderate-Income Communities in the Caribbean

This document presents the modeling of load profile consumption for Low-and-Moderate-Income (LMI) communities in Caribbean Islands, as well an assessment solar-rooftop energy potential. In this work, real data, together with synthetic and electricity bill were collected to validate improve models. The potential was obtained through a National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) software called PVWatts calculator, mathematical analysis. analysis rooftop solar conducted enable minimum size power systems fit demand community. results allow estimation capacity system each house or entire
