Why do PV plants perform lower than expected?
PV plant managers and operators grapple with a range of challenges, including subpar energy production, ineffective solar tracker algorithms, undetected performance losses, overwhelming data and alarms, while declining electricity prices are putting downward pressure on O&M costs.
The EU Project PVOP is developing a series of solutions to address these problems. In this event, a detailed explanation of two aspects of interest will be given in a participatory way:
- Estimating losses by backtracking algorithms in undulating terrain.
- Analysis of the loss chain and identification of deviations from initial expectations.
