Abstract

This paper presents the analysis of the actual, predicted, and simulated technical performance of a residential 2.835 kWp retrofitted grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) system under the feed-in-tariff (FiT) scheme in Klang, Malaysia located in the equatorial region. The technical performance indices of the GCPV system were assessed based on the three-year energy production in 2018, 2019 and 2020. The actual and predicted technical performance were calculated using SEDA mathematical model, which the solar irradiation data was acquired from PVsyst software. Meanwhile, the simulated technical performance was obtained using PVsyst software. The results showed that the prediction using mathematical model has higher percentage difference within the range of 12.54-13.29%, compared to PVsyst simulation that was within 7.93-11.93%. This study has highlighted the factors that contributed to the technical performance underprediction of both mathematical model and PVsyst simulation, which are the estimation of losses and annual irradiation data accuracy. Lastly, the FiT gross income calculated for the three consecutive years were within the range of 3310.80 MYR and 3357.30 MYR. This FiT gross income result conveys an example of Malaysian case study, to enlighten the public, on the economic aspect of installing GCPV system under FiT scheme.

Abstract

Around the world, electricity generation from PV photovoltaic systems is increasing, achieving 10-20% PV system efficiency. However, PV systems degrade due to the technology and the operating conditions and become worse in tropical climate countries. Hence, degradation is one of the key performance indicators for the reliability assessment of a PV system. This paper presents the acceptance ratio (AR) analysis grid-connected photovoltaic (GCPV) located on the campus of the Universiti Teknologi MARA, Shah Alam, Malaysia as the key performance indicators. A comparative analysis of the actual and predicted AC Power and AR of the polycrystalline GCPV system is carried out over monitoring of a one-year period. MATLAB software is chosen to simulate the output power using actual data. Malaysian Standard MS2692:2020 has noted that the AR value must ≥ 0.9 to classify as accepted in testing and commissioning tests and AR < 0.9 has been indicated as a non-accepted GCPV system. The results of acceptance ratio (AR), yield (Y), specific yield (SY), and performance ratio (PR) show that almost half of the AR’s data results show below 0.9 with the performance ratio of PV systems was less than 75%, indicating that the systems needed to be completely replaced.
