RODRIGUEZ ANTUNEZ, Eduardo; CONCEPCION DIAZ, Ovel; FILGUEIRAS SAINZ DE ROZAS, Miriam Lourdes  e  SANTOS FUENTEFRIAS, Ariel. Cost/benefit analysis for solar energy prosumers. Energética [online]. 2024, vol.45, n.1, pp. 15-24.  Epub 30-Mar-2024. ISSN 1815-5901.

Cuba has worked on the development of photovoltaic energy to reduce dependence on fossil fuels. The residential sector has embraced the modality of installing solar panels on the roofs of their homes in order to reduce their rates. Unconsumed energy can be sold to the national electrical grid. In the study, through scenario analysis, with the Homer Pro, the approximate time to recover the initial investment and obtain profits was determined by evaluating its technical-economic viability with the objective of recovering the investment in 7 to 8 years. At provide a clear vision of how the study, when considering local conditions and needs, offers specific recommendations on adjusting tariffs to encourage investment in solar energy and highlights its relevance within the Havana context, so that prosumers can recover their investment in solar energy less time.

Palavras-chave : solar energy; solar panels; investment recovery; energy management system; rates.
