Climate Change Commission Submission – March 2021 In February 2021, The Climate Change Commission released its first package of advice to the government to help Aotearoa New Zealand transition to a thriving, climate-resilient, and low emissions future. They tested their advice via a public consultation to make sure it is “relevant, usable and realis...

phases of a large-scale PV solar power plant project

 The phases of a large-scale PV solar power plant project according to IFC [3] are:   Site identification or PV project opportunity   Pre-feasibility study   Feasibility study   Permitting, financing and contracts   Detailed design   Construction   Commissioning SITE IDENTIFICATION The selection of the site it is a very important issue due to the meteorological conditions of the site selected will largely determine the energy production of the PV plant.

 The components of PV solar power plants are: PV modules, inverters, transformers, switchgears and AC and DC cables.  SOLAR PV MODULES There are different types of solar cells, , the two major families of solar cells dominating the market are going to be explained in more detail in this section: silicon crystalline structure and thinfilm technology.  MOUNTING STRUCTURES Mounting structures are used to fix the PV modules to the ground and they determine the tilt angle and the orientation of the modules. A classification of the mounting structures can be Pole mounts,   Foundation mounts, Ballasted footing mounts etc.  SOLAR INVERTERS PV modules generates power at DC current, Solar inverter convert DC to AC current.  TRANSFORMERS A transformer is an electric device which transfer electric power applied in a primary winding to a secondary winding by electromagnetic induction. The transfer of power is done at the same frequency, but with different...

Solar Design Tools

  Solar designing tools helps in easy automation of solar system design, enabling solar contractors and companies to provide quick, easy and precise estimation to their respective clients. Some software allows to model both, the layout of a solar power plant system as well as to forecast its performance.   1.SketchUp- (For 3D design mapping & Shadow Analysis) SketchUp is a CAD solution which is ideal for creating and editing 2D and 3D models. It is paid software which comes with lot of plugin facility and is specially built for designers, drafters, engineers and architects. This tool offers professional-quality features like- – lighting effects – textures – a layer manager – animations – and unique access to Trimble’s 3D warehouse – models with animation Creating impressive 3D models of solar power plants and more can be easily done in a snap. CAD designers of diversified skill levels can get their desired results with the use of this software. Benefits Of SketchUp- *It’s ...

Solar Panel Maintenance

  Since there are no moving parts, solar panels require   very little maintenance . Once you have covered the installation   cost of solar panels , there are not many costs associated with maintaining them. Having said that, you should inspect them a few times per year for dirt or some other things that might have piled on top. It is important that the panels are  clean  and there is nothing blocking them from  efficiently absorbing the sun . Before cleaning the panels yourself, you should consult with your installer about the  warranty conditions . Some solar panel manufacturers could terminate the warranty if any self cleaning is done. For a general cleaning, you can just use a normal garden hose to wash the face of the panels. You should do this in the morning or evening. Also  avoid spraying them with cold water  while they are hot because that might damage them. Moreover, If the panels need some more cleaning that the hose cannot provide...

PV System Commissioning

  Effective management of a solar PV plant could be divided into 3 distinctive steps i.e.  Engineering Procurement & Construction (EPC),  Commissioning and  Operations & Management (O&M).  EPC deals with the pre-construction and construction activities of the PV power plant. Commissioning is the process that starts along with the construction of plants and proceeds through PV system acceptance. It also deals with the necessary documentation processes required for system acceptance. O&M deals with processes and/or actions required for maintaining and operating the power plant to its maximum capacity. In the solar field, it is important for him to know what the important process/checks while commissioning are. Additionally commissioning also ensures that the plant performs as expected/planned which in-turn drives its ROI. This article aims to educate its readers on basics of commissioning along with few important tips. Among  the first of the ...

Solar Power plant Commissioning Procedure

Commissioning Procedure After the installation of any PV system is completed and the inspection is done, the system will be ready to be plugged to the grid to transfer energy. That process is referred to as Commissioning the system. At the same time, the installer will hand the responsibilities to the owner or operator of the system. There are steps and requirements to commissioning PV systems that vary depending on system size and complexity of design. However, there are general guidelines that apply to most systems. Final checkout The system should be checked thoroughly before the commissioning starts. A highlight of the main electrical items to consider: All disconnects are in (OFF) position during the final checkout.
 Installation matches the design documentation.
 Conductors, OCPD, and disconnect are sized appropriately.
 Compliance with all local AHJ and national codes (including NEC) is met.
 Terminals connections and screws are securely tightened. 
 A highlight of the main mech...
