This paper defines “Solar Deviation” for a distributed solar PV system as the standard deviation of the (aggregated) differences between the observed amounts of power generated by the system at five minute intervals throughout a given day and the expected amounts of power generated by the system.
Parameters of photovoltaic panels (PVPs) is necessary for modeling and analysis of solar power systems. The best and the median values of the main 16 parameters among 1300 PVPs were identified. The results obtained help to quickly and visually assess a given PVP (including a new one) in relation to the existing ones.
Two new metrics, Solar Volatility and Solar Deviation, are introduced to quantify the variability of PV output compared with expected output. These metrics are applied to the time series power data from over 1000 systems each around Los Angeles and Newark.
We hope this synopsis of some important causes of reduced energy production from your solar PV systems–tilt and orientation, incident angle modifier, environmental conditions, and inverter clipping–helps you maximize the output of your systems. This article is part of Aurora’s PV System Losses Series.
The lack of extensive data analysis on existing photovoltaic panels (PVPs) can lead to missed opportunities and benefits when optimizing photovoltaic power plant (PVPP) deployment solutions. The feasibility study of the PVPP requires accurate data on PVPs in order to fully unleash their potential.
The growth of the PVPP market determines the growth of photovoltaic panel (PVP) production. However, in each case, it is necessary to investigate the efficiency of PVPs and the overall performance of the systems in order to select the best PVPs for installation in a specific geographic location.
