Because the PV array rarely produces power to its STC capacity, it is common practice and often economically advantageous to size the inverter to be less than the PV array. This ratio of PV to inverter power is measured as the DC/AC ratio. A healthy design will typically have a DC/AC ratio of 1.25.
The PV inverters output power requires a further step-up in voltage to ensure the network connection. voltage level from 33 kV up to 110 kV. Moreover, large-scale PV power plants still use on line frequency (i.e. 50 or 60 Hz) transformers to isolate and step-up the inverter’s output power to the grid voltage level. AC.
Thus a 9 kW PV array paired with a 7.6 kW AC inverter would have an ideal DC/AC ratio with minimal power loss. When the DC/AC ratio of a solar system is too high, the likelihood of the PV array producing more power than the inverter can handle is increases.
This paper reviews the progress made in solar power generation by PV technology. Performance of solar PV array is strongly dependent on operating conditions. Manufacturing cost of solar power is still high as compared to conventional power.
A basic photovoltaic system integrated with utility grid is shown in Fig. 2. The PV array converts the solar energy to dc power, which is directly dependent on insolation. Blocking diode facilitates the array generated power to flow only towards the power conditioner.
In the event that the PV array outputs more energy than the inverter can handle, the inverter will reduce the voltage of the electricity and drop the power output. This loss in power is known as “clipping”. For example, a DC/AC ratio of 1.5 will likely see clipping losses of 2-5%. Not as major as other losses, but still a noticeable effect.
