Abstract
The performance of 100 kWp roof-top grid-connected PV system was evaluated. The plant was installed at PGDM building in Sharda University, Greater Noida in northern India. The plant was monitored from March 2018 to February 2019. Performance parameters such as system efficiency, performance ratio, capacity utilization factor, and degradation rate were obtained. The plant performance result was compared with the estimated results obtained from SAM and PVsyst software. The total annual energy output was found to be 16426 kWh. The annual average system efficiency and capacity utilization factor of the plant was found to be 15.62 % and 14.72 % respectively. The annual performance ratio and annual degradation rate were found to be 76% and 1.28%/year respectively. The annual performance ratio obtained from SAM and PVsyst was found to be 78% and 82% respectively. It was noticed that the measured performance ratio was highly relative with the one obtained from SAM software.
