Energy Losses of Proposed Grid-Connected PV System in Iraq

This study's major objective is to apply the PV*sol premium valentin programme to conduct an analysis of the energy losses that would be incurred by a projected PV system in Iraq that would be connected to the grid. The photovoltaic (PV) system that has been proposed uses 18 polycrystalline modules, each of which has 4.68 kWp area of 30.2 square metres, with a 30-degree tilt. The energy drains primarily targeted the many types of yields. Total losses, inverter losses, and mean annual final yield were determined to be 9.24%, 0.88 h/d, and 4.28 h/d, respectively, using the collected data. These figures may be found in the table below. In addition, this research shows that the maximum temperature loss may be calculated using the empirical relation (Ltemp.max=0.5086*Ta-9.2707) presented below. This relation is based on the temperature of the surrounding air.
