Components of a PV power Plant

In this article, we will discuss the Components of a PV Power Plant.

As an overview, solar power generation is the process of converting light energy from the sun into electricity using solar modules. 

And this is also known as the photovoltaic effect.

PV systems can also be installed in-grid connected or off-grid configurations.

 In-grid connected conversion is commonly used because is easier to install and less expensive compared to off-grid PV systems which mostly rely on batteries.

Here is a ground mounted pv power plant.

There are the main components as follows.

① Sun Light

② PV Array（Solar panels and Mounting system） 

③ Monitoring System

④ Inverter/Charge Controller

⑤ Battery Bank (Energy Storage Unit)

 AC Grid System 

⑥ Transformer

⑦ Transmission Tower & Lines

⑧ Residential & Commercial Power Utilization

Summary

Solar power plants use a large number of PV panels that are combined into PV arrays in an optimal configuration to harvest light from the sun and convert it into dc current.And your inverter used to convert them to ac current,  before it can be directly used or fed into the electrical grid.

As an experienced manufacturer of photovoltaic structures, Power Stone will be committed to providing customers with the optimal solar support installation array in order to improve the collection of light and increase the conversion rate.
