Observing the increasing energy demand and the significant rise in electricity tariffs for consumers, especially residential consumers, in recent years, it becomes viable to find means to reduce the exposure of these consumers to fluctuations in these tariffs. The generation of electricity through the photovoltaic effect in solar panels has grown signifi- cantly in recent years, driven by its economic and environmental benefits. Therefore, this paper presents a technical-economic analysis for the development of residential photo- voltaic generation system projects from normative, technical, and economic perspectives. This monograph will present and discuss the components of grid-connected photovoltaic generation systems, calculations for sizing and installation of photovoltaic panels, and a case study regarding the sizing of a residential photovoltaic generation system with the calculation of the economic feasibility of implementing such a system.
