SUMMARY: Authors tested the performances of the photo voltaic generating system of independent source with solar and storage batteries for the purpose of application for fishing activities. Converting efficiency was −0.0024 t + 0.2231 ( t is average temperature), and battery coefficient, which means efficiency of battery, was 0.378. Simulation for installment on bamboo‐platform liftnet (Bagan) in Pelabuhan Ratu, Indonesia, shows good results (i.e. power generated by this system is expected to be 0.263 MJ/m 2 per day, 48% greater than under the solar radiation conditions in Japan). Required area for the system installment is 18.2 m 2 for 10 h lighting of 0.5 kW fishing light. It is possible to install the system on standard Bagans.
