.The absolute energy yield (EY) of PV modules is defined in watt hours (Wh). Because of the diferent eficiencies and designs of PV modules, it makes sense to calculate the specific energy yield in watt hours per watt peak (kWh/kWp), by dividing EY by the nominal power PSTC; this allows
r 1% of energy yield, which could be achieved by choosing capable PV modules. Besides the chance for investors to maximise their net profit by considering the energy yield performance, this relation also bears a certain investment risk for the PV industry if the long-term performance is lower than expect d, and if
.Energy yield performance as a key factor for the return on a PV invest-mentConsider a PV power plant with 100MWp nominal power (for STC) at a location with a moderate specific energy yield of 1,500kWh/kWp and a levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) of US$100/MWh; this means US$150,000 extra revenue for each per cent of additional ener
rmine accurate predictions of module energy yield using conventional methods. Markus Schweiger, Werner Herrmann, Christos Monokroussos and Uwe Rau describe how a calculation of module performance ratio can be used to accurately assess the efficiency of different PV module technologies
The nameplate d.c. power rating is determined by summing the module powers listed on the nameplates on the backsides of the individual PV modules in the PV array. The PV module power ratings are for STC of 1000 W/m2 solar irradiance and 25°C cell temperature.
These parameters are the performance ratio, final PV system yield and reference yield. The final PV system yield Yf is the net energy output EPV divided by the nameplate d.c power PmaxG,STC (STC – Standard Test Condition 1000 W/m2, 250C) of the installed PV array.
