TL;DR: A methodology which produces information on performance, cost, and value components of utility grid connected photovoltaic power plants has been developed and an application to a utility gridconnected central power system with a range of operations alternatives is presented.
Abstract: In order to evaluate the commercial viability of photovoltaic power systems it is necessary to have reliable estimates and descriptions of the supply of electricity generated by the solar technology, the demand for that electricity, and the market application A methodology which produces information on performance, cost, and value components of utility grid connected photovoltaic power plants has been developed to assist in these evaluations (References 1, 2) This report describes that analytical model and presents an application to a utility grid connected central power system with a range of operations alternatives
