Abstract

The application of statistical methods for the analysis of random processes to obtain quantitative estimates for the performance indicators of photovoltaic plants as a stochastic energy source is considered. The power generation process is represented by a set of daily random functions with their respective trends and stochastic components. One hour was taken as the minimum stationari-ty interval of trend’s statistical characteristics. A time period of 16 years was studied to obtain statistically stable estimates. The meteorological database SARAH2 was used as a source of hourly data on the density of solar irradiance, ambient temperature and wind speed in the middle part of the Azov-Black Sea region of Ukraine. For mathematical modelling of power generation and electricity production processes, specialized software PVGIS version 5.2 of the European Commission was used. Hourly quantitative estimates of expected daily power generation trends for each month of the year, as well as their correlation functions, were computed. Algorithms were developed and levels of probabilistic assurance for hourly generated power were evaluated. Statistical estimates of the expected daily, monthly, and annual volumes of electricity production by photovoltaic power plants were studied, taking into account the meteorological conditions in the said region.
