A new method based on charge parameters to analyse the performance of stand-alone photovoltaic systems

摘要

The monitored data in photovoltaic systems are processed to determine overall energy balances which, together with the energy efficiencies and indices of performance, give a good indication of the performance of PV systems. However, the analysis based on energy parameters shows some shortcomings when they are used to analyse the performance of stand-alone photovoltaic (SAPV) systems, especially those without Maximum Power Point Tracker (MPPT).
