Title
Evaluation Of Stationary, Tracking And Concentrating Photovoltaic System Designs For An Intermediate Size Photovoltaic Project In Florida.
Abstract
A variety of photovoltaic (PV) systems designed to provide an average of 1800 kWh/day in south Florida are compared. The photovoltaic system designs were developed using stationary and tracking flat-plate arrays as well as concentrating arrays. The systems are compared on the basis of total cost for use in powering a large scale pumping project. The system design, configuration, land area requirements, performance and life cycle costs of the various photovoltaic options are discussed. The designs developed with commercially available hardware are used to obtain installation cost estimates from photovoltaic system suppliers. Operation and maintenance costs of each system are factored into the life cycle system costs which are developed for the comparative evaluation.
