Abstract: This chapter presents the important features of solar photovoltaic (PV) generation and an overview of electrical storage technologies. The basic unit of a solar PV generation system is a solar cell, which is a P‐N junction diode. The power electronic converters used in solar systems are usually DC‐DC converters and DC‐AC converters.
This paper reviews the progress made in solar power generation by PV technology. Performance of solar PV array is strongly dependent on operating conditions. Manufacturing cost of solar power is still high as compared to conventional power.
It was verified that the determining factors for choosing the best locations are solar irradiation, substation distance, slope, distance of roads, distance from urban areas, and land use.
We investigate the degree of importance of criteria affecting the site selection of solar PV projects using a decision-making model. In this study, a new model for determining the weight coefficients of the site selection criteria of solar PV projects based on the logarithmic additive assessment of the weight coefficients (LAAW) is proposed.
Proximity to populated areas is considered widely in the literature as a determining factor for the site selection problem for solar PV power plant (Halder et al. 2021). When the solar PV power plant is near populated areas, the energy transmission cost is reduced; however, this may adversely affect the environment.
While developing a utility-scale solar power plant, various factors or criteria have to be taken care of in selecting the site location. Probable Site Selection of Photovoltaic Power Plant (PVPP) is a complex MCDM process, as the required site has to be climatically and geographically acceptable. It must also have the highest generation potentials.
The installation of solar PV power plants requires vast land and huge investment. Therefore, it is necessary to select a suitable site to achieve maximum efficiency and low cost. A feasible location of photovoltaic (PV) system must consider certain criteria including land restrictions, access to roads, and transmission lines.
Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Electrical Engineering ( (LNEE,volume 686)) Site Selection is a crucial step in installing Solar Power Plant (SPP) as it is determined by a set of quantitative and qualitative factors, which are vague in nature.
In this review, various suggestions for site location of Photovoltaic Power System (PVPS) are studied. The solar power plants are mainly installed in remote regions where solar radiation is high. But these regions are far from the generation site and will face problems in transmission and distribution.
