Photovoltaic Planning Process for Untypical Region

The power generated by PV arrays or cells could be reduced by the case of shadow loss. This chapter mainly focuses on how to gain the maximum power for a solar farm after considering the influences of spacing, tit angle, and azimuth angle on the planning fields. A mathematical model is proposed firstly, during the process of planning the PV array located in Nanjing (32°N, 118°E), the influences on the productivity of it caused by the different types of photovoltaic cells and different arrangement programs are discussed then. Corresponding results show that the station can get the maximum generation power by choosing KD210GH-2PU cells with scheme 1. The results above also indicate that the mathematical model and the process presented are suitable for the practical engineering application.
