Abstract

Objective: This study aims to investigate performance of the solar power plant by bifacial panels in two different places. Methods: Power plant has been designed and simulated in two different geographical locations located in Esfarayen, North Khorasan, Iran. The site 1, with latitude of 37.07, almost in the central part of the city, and the site 2, located in shah jhan with latitude of 34.67. Pvsyst is used as simulation software to design and simulate photovoltaic systems. Results: In site 1, the energy produced from the system is 189mWh per year and the payback time is 7.2 years. In site 2, the energy produced from the system is 223mWh per year and the payback time is 6.4 years. Conclusion: It can be said that in the construction of a power plant, optimal positioning is one of the ways to increase efficiency.
