The increasing use of electrical energy drawsthe attention of scientists around the world to studies of alternatives for the generation of electricity through renewable energy sources, among them, photovoltaic solar energy. This work proposes a photovoltaic system connected to the grid for the town of Sagua. The PVSyst software was used to calculate the energy production of the photovoltaic system and the economic evaluation criteria Net Present Value, Internal Rate of Return and Payback Period to verify its profitability. The proposal resulted from a 3.28 MW capacity site, from which 4407 MWh/year is generated, for a payback period of 5 years. The proposal made establishes that it is feasible to start up a 3.28 MW installation in this area from a technical and economic point of view.
