    Hello,

And system have to be affordable for village customers.I want your help in this how can i design this system.

    interesting. Is this a single power source that is routed to multiple residences, or individual systems for each resident?

      Welcome.
      First thing, is What is the Load (in Watt Hours) that the system will be designed to?

      Until the load is known, (2KWh, 8KWh, 32Kh) the system could end up being undersized, and fail rapidly, or oversized and cost a lot of extra money - except loads always increase. But you need a place to start.

      try reading the first 4 "stickies" posts here for design assistance, then continue asking questions
      Remember, you are on your way to becoming a Power Plant Engineer, and will HAVE to learn this stuff.
      Discuss remote solar applications for homes, cabins, RV and boats. If you have a question on equipment for an off grid system, such as charge controllers or inverters, then post your question in this forum.

        Until you determine how many watt hours total you need each day, no one can help you. Once you figure that out you need very deep pockets full of money and sky is the limit budget.

          Is this a term that the Bureau of Labor and Statistics uses?
