> Energy Losses
> Challenges
– Quantify Energy Losses
– Identify source of Energy Loss
> Solutions
EDAMS-Solar-Operations:
– The system analyses the PV Park losses and evaluates the performance of the PV Plant on a regular basis. Shading, soiling and inverter losses are analysed, and system inefficiencies are identified.
> Faults
> Challenges
– Identify faults immediately
– Identify source of faults
– Prompt response for repairs
> Solutions
EDAMS-Solar-Operations, enables:
– Alarms Monitoring: Fault Analysis refers to automated Real time analysis of readings to identify failure and raise Alarms. Alarms are on dashboards that enable drilling down to identify specific problems and reasons for raising the alarm.
– Trigger Maintenance Management: All Alerts are automatically allocated to PV Assets for Maintenance purposes and easy reference. EDAMS-Maintenance Management (EDAMS-MMS) is automatically activated to issue Maintenance Requests and Job cards
> Performance Monitoring
> Challenges
– Monitoring Performance
> Solutions
EDAMS-Solar-Operations:
– The system calculates the daily performance ratios both for each plant and each Inverter/ panel system. The performance ratios are shown graphically with time for user definable periods.
– Based on records the system computes the daily/weekly and monthly performance indicators such as Reference System Yield, Specific Yield, Performance Ratio, System Efficiency, Capacity Factor, Availability Factor and Modules Efficiency.
> Benefits
- Improved reliability, efficiency and availability
- Optimized energy production
