This paper presents a model for the economic evaluation of electrical energy production from photovoltaic systems. The economic evaluation model takes into account all the operational incomes as well as all the expenses for the implementation, operation and maintenance of the photovoltaic system. The model uses five financial criteria and is applied for the economic evaluation of an on-grid photovoltaic station at the prefecture of Chania.
