Abstract- – This paper begins with a comprehensive analysis of the requirements
and specifications of a typical household’s power consumption. It then explores various photovoltaic (PV) panel technologies and battery storage options to optimize the system’s performance and reliability. The proposed solar based inverter system incorporates several key components, including solar panel, charge controllers, batteries, and inverter circuit. The solar panel is strategically positioned to capture maximum sunlight, and the charge controller regulates the charging process to prevent overcharging and ensure battery longevity. A battery bank stores excess solar energy for use during cloudy days or at night. The inverter converts DC power from the batteries into AC power compatible with home appliances. This paper highlights the design and development of clean, simple and cost-effective solar powered inverter for home appliances. The inverter uses MOSFET IRF540 as a switching device to convert the 24v to 220v. This design will contribute to sustainable energy solutions, reduce electricity bills, and minimize the carbon footprint of households. The results of this development effort demonstrate the feasibility of implementing renewable energy
sources for everyday residential needs.
