Abstract
The paper presents the analysis’ results of the generation and economic efficiency of a solar power station functioning in the private sector in conjunction with a centralized power grid. Based on data analysis of the generation of a test solar power plant with a capacity of 1.86 kW, a comparative analysis of the calculated and actual characteristics in real functioning conditions is carried out. The estimated power generation capacity of the station during 5 months (December 2019 - April 2020) was 680.1 kWh, and the actual generation for the same period was 525.86 kWh. Using data on the solar radiation’s level on the Chechen Republic territory, as well as data on electricity tariffs in the region, the economic effect of using a grid solar power plant is predicted. Taking into account the electricity tariff for private consumers, the estimated payback period of the system was 25 years. At a rate for commercial consumers - 12 years. Based on the analysis, it was concluded that the use of grid solar power plants is economically feasible only for electricity consumers in the Chechen Republic who purchase electricity at a commercial rate.
