7.2 System capacity:<br />

Figure 27. Monthly nominal power graph for 123 kW <strong>system</strong><br />

Our PV <strong>system</strong>’s nominal power output is 123 kWp. Due to various factors such as site<br />

location, weather condition, insolation, irradiance, performances <strong>of</strong> PV modules <strong>and</strong><br />

inverters <strong>and</strong> <strong>system</strong> losses, the power capacity <strong>of</strong> the <strong>system</strong> is reduced.<br />

Results from theoretical calculation<br />

Considering these factors, the operating power output = (total no. <strong>of</strong> <strong>solar</strong><br />

panel*maximum power at defined irradiance <strong>of</strong> a <strong>solar</strong> panel) kWp<br />

= (492*173.51) kWp<br />

= 86 kWp<br />

So, the total effective power output <strong>of</strong> <strong>design</strong>ed PV <strong>system</strong> is 86 kW at 25 o C.<br />

From <strong>simulation</strong> results we have got the effective <strong>system</strong> capacity is 110 kW.<br />
