The performance of a photovoltaic (PV) system is highly affected by different types of power losses which are incurred by electrical equipment or altering weather conditions. In this context, an accurate analysis of power losses for a PV system is of significant importance.
PV system losses are the variance between the expected maximum output energy of a solar energy system and the actual energy it provides. A solar PV system loss occurs at various phases of energy conversion and transfer, from the solar radiation hitting the panels to providing usable electricity to your home or the grid.
From module mismatch and soiling to temperature fluctuations and energy conversion inefficiencies, each component in the system can potentially lead to a loss of solar output. Identifying the causes of these PV losses is essential for optimizing the system’s design and increasing the efficiency of your solar panels.
The unavoidable system losses were quantified as inverter losses, maximum power point tracking losses, battery losses, and polarization losses. The study also provides insights into potential approaches to combat these losses and can become a useful guide to better visualize the overall phenomenology of a PV System.
This analysis attempts to demonstrate whether the loss prediction models built based on the historical data of a particular PV system (which work well for that PV system) are applicable for another PV system with different technical characteristics and climatic conditions or not.
Furthermore, the detailed PV array losses were classified as mismatch power losses, dust accumulation losses, temperature effects, material quality losses, and ohmic wiring losses. The unavoidable system losses were quantified as inverter losses, maximum power point tracking losses, battery losses, and polarization losses.
