Abstract
The relevance of the article’s results lies in presenting the actual energy yields of PV panels of various generations and types of installations. The aim of the article is to provide answers about the effective operation of three different photovoltaic systems: a stationary off-grid system operated for several years, a stationary on-grid system, and a system mounted on trackers. A stationary on-grid system was used as the reference system, taking its area and energy yield as the reference point. The assessment was made on the basis of energy and cost efficiency analysis using the comparative method. The obtained results were compared to the results of other PV systems whose parameters were obtained from literature analysis. The analysis showed significant differences in adapting them to different sunlight conditions. The results confirmed the validity of using fixed PV panels (Installation II) in the short term and the advantage of the PV panel tracking system (Installation III) in the long term. The results also confirm that Installation I, despite its eight years of operation time, shows a relatively small decrease in efficiency, which confirms the validity of the long-term operation of the PV installation.
