Impact of Climatic Parameters on Power Generation of A Grid Connected Solar Photo Voltaic System in India

Sheeraz Kirmani, Mohammad Kalimullah

ABSTRACT The maximum use of natural resources ( like coal, gas, oil etc ) for electricity generation and diminishing trend of these resources compelling globally to use the solar photovoltaic (SPV) as a viable and eco-friendly substitute. The commercial PV conversion efficiency is the main hindrance in significant use of SPV generation technology. The geological position (span and available solar insolation) and installation design (inclination, direction, and elevation) is the main aspect for maximum generation of solar power. However, generation efficiency and output power of SPV is the main parameter to examine the performance attainment of the system after addressing the geographic location and installation design aspects. The grid connected and stand alone SPV systems in India has been shooting up in recent years due to government policies, regulation, coming up of higher efficiency solar modules and power electronics advancement. This paper shows the impact of climatic changes like irradiance, temperature, humidity, and rain on the power generation by solar photovoltaic in India. Keywords: geographic location, Installation design, natural resources, solar photovoltaic, solar insolation
