In Step-by-Step Design of Large-Scale Photovoltaic Power Plants, a team of distinguished engineers delivers a comprehensive reference on PV power plants—and their design—for specialists, experts, and academics. Written in three parts, the book covers the detailed theoretical knowledge required to properly design a PV power plant. It goes on to explore the step-by-step requirements for creating a real-world PV power plant, including parts and components design, mathematical formulations and calculations, analyses, evaluations, and planning.
The book concludes with a discussion of a sample solar plant design, as well as tips on how to avoid common design mistakes, and how to handle the operation and maintenance of PV power plants.
Step-by-Step Design of Large-Scale Photovoltaic Power Plants also includes:
- Thorough introductions to the basic requirements of design, economic analyses, and investment revenue
- Comprehensive explorations of the requirements for feasibility study and grid connection study
- Introducing solar resource, and determining optimum tilt angle and module inter-row spacing
- Presenting methodology for design of large-scale PV plant, requirements of engineering document, and optimal design algorithm
- In-depth examinations for selecting PV module, inverter, string, and DC side equipment
- Practical discussions of system losses, as well as estimation of yearly electrical energy production, capacity factor, and performance ratio of large-scale PV plant
Perfect for professionals in the solar power industry, Step-by-Step Design of Large-Scale Photovoltaic Power Plants will also earn a place in the libraries of equipment manufacturers and university professors seeking a one-stop resource for the design of PV power plants.
