  2. Nominal power (photovoltaic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nominal_power_(photovoltaic)

    Nominal power (or peak power) is the nameplate capacity of photovoltaic (PV) devices, such as solar cells, modules and systems. It is determined by measuring the electric current and voltage in a circuit , while varying the resistance under precisely defined conditions.

  3. Panel generation factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panel_generation_factor

    Panel generation factor (PGF) [1] is used while calculating the size of solar photovoltaic cells. It is a varying factor depending upon the climate of the site location (depending upon global geographic location). For example, in Thailand it is 3.43, in EU countries it is 2.93, etc. This factor is used in calculation of "Total Watt-Peak Rating ...

  4. Photovoltaic system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_system

    A photovoltaic system, also called a PV system or solar power system, is an electric power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics.It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to convert the output from direct to alternating current, as well as mounting, cabling, and ...

  5. Solar irradiance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_irradiance

    Total solar irradiance (TSI) is a measure of the solar power over all wavelengths per unit area incident on the Earth's upper atmosphere. It is measured facing (pointing at / parallel to) the incoming sunlight (i.e. the flux through a surface perpendicular to the incoming sunlight; other angles would not be TSI and be reduced by the dot product ...

  6. Capacity factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacity_factor

    A typical hydroelectric plant's operators can bring it from a stopped condition to full power in just a few minutes. Wind farms are variable, due to the natural variability of the wind. For a wind farm, the capacity factor is determined by the availability of wind, the swept area of the turbine and the size of the generator. Transmission line ...

  7. Solar-cell efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-cell_efficiency

    The efficiency of the solar cells used in a photovoltaic system, in combination with latitude and climate, determines the annual energy output of the system. For example, a solar panel with 20% efficiency and an area of 1 m 2 produces 200 kWh/yr at Standard Test Conditions if exposed to the Standard Test Condition solar irradiance value of 1000 ...
