In this chapter of the project a description of the main components forming a large-scale PV solar power plant is done. The elements described below are going to be considered during the calculations used for the system design. The components described are: PV modules, inverters, transformers, switchgears and AC and DC cables.
Designing a large-scale PV power plant requires infrastructure that can handle such an installation. For instance, the location must be selected carefully to avoid shading from buildings, trees, or other obstructions.
The steps to calculate the PV solar power plant final design are shown below: - Location and climate data: In this case, to make the calculation more accurate a location closer to the real location of the PV project is added to the meteorological database.
The modules and inverters selected for the PV plant design are listed below: Trinasolar is a Chinese PV module’s manufacturer which operates also in United States and Europe. In 2014 this company became the first PV modules provider with a total of 3.66 GW of installed capacity.
To make the design it is carried out a methodology for the calculation of the different parameters required for the realization of a project of this nature. Subsequently, the different parameters obtained are compared with parameters obtained in literature and with the parameters obtained by means of specialized PV software (PVsyst and SAM).
The chapter presents commercially available technologies of solar PV modules. The solar tracking system is a device that moves solar panels continuously to face the sun with the aim of maximizing the panels’ output power.
