Photovoltaic (PV) risk analysis serves to identify and reduce the risks associated with investments in PV projects. The key challenge in reacting to failures or avoiding them at a reasonable cost is the ability to quantify and manage the various risks.
PV risk analysis serves to identify and reduce the risks associated with investments in PV projects. The key challenge in reacting to failures or avoiding them at a reasonable cost is the ability to quantify and manage the various risks.
Semi-quantitative and quantitative methodologies are introduced to assess technical risks in PV power systems and provide examples of common technical risks described and rated in the new created PV failure fact sheets (PVFS).
system. These data come from TEP managers, databases and documents. Our preliminary risk analysis indicated that the greatest risk for an electric power grid with solar PV systems was weather causing the solar panels to receive less sunlight than expected.
In other words, risk is a unit less measure. Table 2 summarizes the operating performance risks for solar PV systems and TEP’s distribution grid. These risks are related to the functionality of the system. Failure events in the performance category typically result in system downtime and will affect the quality and reliability of system operations.
Demand risk is not generally applicable to solar PV projects where the power purchase agreement often works on a "must take" basis as the electricity produced cannot be stored and the Contracting Authority takes the risk that the system does not require the electricity at the times that the solar PV project is generating.
