Abstract
On June 3, 1998, researchers from the Florida Solar Energy Center (FSEC) conducted a field test of six, independent photovoltaic (PV) systems at the Florida Power and Light (FPL) Martin Power Plant. The weather conditions during test were hazy with a few clouds. This test was performed at the request of FPL to determine the operational status of the PV systems and to provide recommendations for upgrading or repairing these systems. Of the six systems, three were fully operational and were providing power to the grid.
