Performance analysis of a 3MWp grid connected solar photovoltaic power plant in India

Preliminary assessment of a small-scale rooftop PV-grid tied in Norwegian climatic conditions

“…There are many performance evaluation studies of PV modules installed outdoors across Europe [8][9][10][11][12][13][14] and globally [15][16][17][18][19]. However, apart from the work of Midtgard et al [20], there is little information available (in open literature) on the actual operation and energy production from PV systems in Norway.…”

“…While miscellaneous capture losses may occur for one or several reasons, such as wiring losses in the cables between PV panels and inverter, losses due to soiling, diodes, shading and/or component failure. Losses at the AC side of the conversion, called system losses, are mainly occur in the inverter, losses in the transformer (in the case of large scale installations) and wire resistance losses [18].…”

“…Array and system losses An array capture losses is the difference between the reference yield and the array yield. It is given as [18]:…”

Comparative performance investigation of mono- and poly-crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules for use in grid-connected photovoltaic systems in dry climates

“…Over the last few years, various studies have been conducted on the performance parameters of installed PV power plants in different geographical locations, with different climatic conditions [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15]. Performance analyses investigate the influences of PV module technologies, inverters, shading, wiring, array inclinations, tracking and fixed PV systems, type of grid connections, etc.…”

Photovoltaic installation for a roofed car park in Egypt as an example of effective use of solar energy

“…The lowest performance ratios were for India 1816 kWp installation [27] -0.637, and for present in this article Egypt PV installation -0.62. India 110 kWp [16] India 5kWp [25] India 11.2kWp [26] India 1816 kWp…”
