Abstract: This paper presents performance of a grid connected (5.5 kW) solar PV system for electricity generation at the College of Science and Technology in Bhutan. Energy profile and power quality of the system was analysed using Engage Hub Solo, Fluke 430 series II and Powerlog software. Total energy flow in system, variation of voltage, frequency deviation, current and voltage harmonics, and THDi and THDv with and without solar PV have been studied.

Keywords: Solar photovoltaic, Power quality, Harmonics, Total harmonic distortion
