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.

Do solar tracking mounting systems have a shading phenomenon?

In the design of P V plants composed of mounting systems without a solar tracker (e.g. ), it is essential to study the shadows produced between the rows of mounting systems. In contrast, in this study, when considering solar tracking mounting systems with backtracking movement, the shading phenomenon will never occur.

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

Does latitude affect the design of a photovoltaic plant?

L C O E efficiency is 1.09. Designers of photovoltaic plants with single-axis solar tracking can use this tool to reduce calculation time and optimise results. This research group plans to apply this methodology in different parts of the world to analyse the influence of the latitude of the location on the design of this type of photovoltaic plant.
