Renewable power generation can help countries meet their sustainable development goals through provision of access to clean, secure, reliable and affordable energy sources. The construction sector significantly uses non-renewable energy. The idea is to check the effectiveness of utilization of the renewable energy sources i.e. solar power for the various activities during construction. The energy requirement during construction activities is studied in detail. Comparative study of present

... io of energy resources for construction activities and the proposed renewable energy utilization for the same is carried out. This paper elaborates the use of solar power for the energy consumption during the construction activities and also the feasibility check is carried out by technical analysis and also financial analysis for implementation of solar panels during the construction by LCCA for the proposed site with solar panels and without solar panels, payback period, benefit/cost ratio and cumulative cash flow. In the present work case study of an industrial site has been considered and solar power plant is implemented on the site for the construction activities during the construction phase for all the electrical equipment used on site and LCCA is carried out by using net present value. The grid connected solar of 50 kW is proposed for the site by considering the energy consumption of site for which the relevant data from site is collected and the solar is proposed on visitors car parking with no disturbance to the construction activities and technical as well as financial analysis is done for the same.
