Solar Photovoltaic Power Generation System Efficiency Analysis

1) Photovoltaic Temperature Factor

The efficiency of photovoltaic cells changes with their operating temperature. As their temperature increases, the efficiency of most types of photovoltaic cells tends to decrease. The reduction factor is taken as 96%.

2) Dust Loss of Photovoltaic Array

Due to pollution caused by dust or water accumulation on photovoltaic modules, statistics show that the impact on frequently rain-washed photovoltaic modules averages between 2~4%, while for dirtier modules without rain washing, the impact averages between 8~10%. The project location experiences windy springs and rainy summers. Considering comprehensively, the reduction coefficient is taken as 3%, meaning the pollution reduction factor is 95%.

3) Average Efficiency of Inverters

The average efficiency of grid-connected photovoltaic inverters is currently around 97.5%.

4) DC Power Distribution Loss of Photovoltaic Array

Preliminary estimates indicate that the DC power distribution loss of the photovoltaic array is about 1.5%. The comprehensive power distribution loss coefficient is 98.5%.

5) Unit Availability

Although the failure rate of solar cells is extremely low, regular maintenance and grid faults still cause certain losses. The loss coefficient is taken as 1%, and the availability of the photovoltaic power generation system is 99%.

6) Energy losses such as internal power consumption, step-up transformer loss, and line loss in the photovoltaic power station account for 2%, with a utilization rate of 98%.

7) Solar panel variation loss is 2%, with a utilization rate of 98%.

8) Unusable radiation loss in the morning and evening is 2%, with a utilization rate of 98%.

Combining the above reduction coefficients, the comprehensive efficiency of the fixed polycrystalline silicon battery array system is 81.6%.

The photoelectric conversion efficiency of crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules decays year by year. Over the 25-year lifespan of the entire photovoltaic power generation system, the average annual effective utilization hours also decrease annually. The photovoltaic modules used in this project have an annual decay of no more than 10% within 10 years and no more than 20% within 25 years.
