It discussed technical issues and design an integrated of photovoltaic in domestic using within an urban approach towards sustainability in energy. Photovoltaic systems can be used to develop the solar energy in almost all kinds of applications. Exploiting of solar energy for domestic use is one avenue where the energy produce from the sun is converted into electricity to power most if not all the appliances available at the homes and residences. Building a photovoltaic system is the process of designing, selecting and calculating the ratings of the equipments employed in the system. This process depends on a range of factors such as geographical location, solar irradiation and load requirements. Researcher introduce the procedures utilize in building and selecting the equipments of a grid-connected photovoltaic system based on the Watt-Hour demand was 3.8 kW. As a case study, a residence in Khartoum with low energy consumption is selected. ER -
