PROJECT TITLE :

First-Year Performance of a 20-MW$_$ PV Power Plant

ABSTRACT:

When one year of continuous operation in Ontario, Canada, the measured performance of the Sarnia 20-MW $_rm ac$ power plant can be compared with each the long-term energy prediction and also the expected energy for the operating year 2010. Based mostly on the primary-year's information at Enbridge's Sarnia 20-MW$_rm ac$ power plant, the ability plant is operating two.1% above the long-term prediction, which is well at intervals the expected error bars of the measurements. Estimation of the modeling error not solely shows that there's no single driver of the modeling error throughout traditional operation however shows that enhancements are attainable similarly.
