Electricity Generation of Solar Photovoltaic System

Abstract

The SPV electricity generation employs various cell technologies namely polycrystalline, mono crystalline, amorphous, CIGS cells. To evaluate the performance of SPV plant a mathematical model was generated base on empirical relations and performance was calculated under various conditions. The electrical output was calculated based on various parameters such as tilt angle, cell technology, radiation levels. Sensitivity analysis was also carried out at five different geographical locations namely New Delhi, Ladhak, Jodhpur Mumbai, and Bangalore. The result shows that electrical output is maximum for polycrystalline cell at a give location and at tilt angle of plus minus 50 of location. Jodhpur was found to be the best geographical local followed by New Delhi.
