How are horizontal single-axis solar trackers distributed in photovoltaic plants?

This study presents a methodology for estimating the optimal distribution of horizontal single-axis solar trackers in photovoltaic plants. Specifically, the methodology starts with the design of the inter-row spacing to avoid shading between modules, and the determination of the operating periods for each time of the day.

What are the design variables of a single-axis photovoltaic plant?

This paper presents an optimisation methodology that takes into account the most important design variables of single-axis photovoltaic plants, including irregular land shape, size and configuration of the mounting system, row spacing, and operating periods (for backtracking mode, limited range of motion, and normal tracking mode).

Which mounting system configuration is best for granjera photovoltaic power plant?

The optimal layout of the mounting systems could increase the amount of energy captured by 91.18% in relation to the current of Granjera photovoltaic power plant. The mounting system configuration used in the optimal layout is the one with the best levelised cost of energy efficiency, 1.09.

How are the mounting systems separated in a granjera PV power plant?

In addition, the mounting systems are separated by a North-to-South distance e l = 0. 3 (m) and a minimum distance from East to West d min = 4 (m). Table 2. Actual parameters of the Granjera PV power plant. 5.2. Inter-row spacing design

How is the packing algorithm used for photovoltaic modules?

The packing algorithm used Geo-spatial data from satellite images to determine the U T M coordinates of the available land area for the installation of the photovoltaic modules. For this purpose, the Q G I S software, an open-source geographic information system software, has been used.

Where is granjera photovoltaic power plant located?

The proposed methodology has been applied in Granjera photovoltaic power plant, located in Zaragoza, Spain (with latitude 41 ° 1 3 ′ 4 8 ″ N, longitude 1 ° 2 1 ′ 0 0 ″ W and altitude 884 (m)). From a quantitative point of view, the conclusions obtained can be summarised: Table 5. Values of the different loads acting on the mounting system.
