In this chapter of the project a description of the main components forming a large-scale PV solar power plant is done. The elements described below are going to be considered during the calculations used for the system design. The components described are: PV modules, inverters, transformers, switchgears and AC and DC cables.
Once the pre-design phase is done with the corresponding results obtained and they are analysed, the final design of the PV power plant project is made. In the final design phase with PVsyst the four different scenarios, with their characteristics, are going to be analysed separately.
DESIGN & SIZING PRINCIPLES Appropriate system design and component sizing is fundamental requirement for reliable operation, better performance, safety and longevity of solar PV system. The sizing principles for grid connected and stand-alone PV systems are based on different design and functional requirements.
ms.4. Guidelines for Grid Connected System SizingSolar PV system sizing will be limited by two factors, the amount of physical space available for the installation and the electricity consumption profile of the building (load profile).Current regulations do not provide favourable incentives for systems to fe
The steps to calculate the PV solar power plant final design are shown below: - Location and climate data: In this case, to make the calculation more accurate a location closer to the real location of the PV project is added to the meteorological database.
The design parameters calculated are the number of PV modules in the system, the number of PV modules in series and parallel and the total installed capacity. The main purpose of the energy calculations is to obtain the Annual Energy Production (AEP) of the system.
