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.
It is a large-scale PV plant designed to produce bulk electrical power from solar radiation. The solar power plant uses solar energy to produce electrical power. Therefore, it is a conventional power plant. Solar energy can be used directly to produce electrical energy using solar PV panels.
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 main factor driving the rapid growth of the PV solar capacity is mainly economic, PV solar power plants have reduced their associated cost by 70% . The total cost reduction in PV solar power plants is caused by cost reduction due to technological improvements, economies of scale in manufacturing and innovations in financing .
Large-scale solar power system integration, unlike conventional electrical system contract work, is multidisciplinary in nature and requires considerable experience in a multitude of disciplines.
