The PV tab in the Simulation Results window contains the following output variables.
|
Variable |
Description |
|
Rated Capacity |
The rated capacity of the PV array under standard conditions, in kW |
|
Mean Output |
The average power amount of the PV array over the year, in kW and kWh/day |
|
Capacity Factor |
The average power output of the PV array (in kW) divided by its rated power, in % |
|
Total Production |
The total power output of the PV array over the year, in kWh/yr |
|
Minimum Output |
The minimum power output of the PV array over the year, in kW |
|
Maximum Output |
The maximum power output of the PV array over the year, in kW |
|
PV Penetration |
The average power output of the PV array divided by the average primary load, in % |
|
Hours of Operation |
The number of hours of the year during which the PV array output was greater than zero |
|
Levelized Cost |
The levelized cost of energy of the PV array, in $/kWh |
In the bottom half of the page a DMap appears showing the power output of the PV array in each time step of the year.
