Dear all,
I am using PVLIB Python script to calculate energy output. I am analysing the data with Trina 275 Wp Solar module and Solar Edge HD wave inverter (with power optimisers). In the attached file, for the month of January, I am comparing the actual data with the PVLIB energy output. The actual energy is always greater than the theoretical energy output and I believe this is because of the power optimisers used by Solar edge.
However, if I use different inverter (without power optimiser), then I am achieving almost similar results (approximately 2% difference throughout the year).
Therefore, would anyone be kind to let me know, if there is any function for calculating energy output for power optimisers?
I appreciate your inputs.
Thanks and regards,
Laxmikant.
Dear Laxmikant,
welcome,
The main optimization of the PV generator is the maximum power tracking for the output of the module. Also there is also two dimensional or one dimensional optimization of the solar tracking systems.
These are the two tracking controllers which must be considered.
Best wishes
Perhaps the power optimiser itself needs to be optimized? It is not enough to invent a great name if the electronics implemented are defective.
