Ensuring the Success of Utility-Scale PV Projects – through complete understanding. PV Power Plants 2009 – USA Utility-Scale PV - 10th / 11th December 2009 - Las Vegas, NV, USA Ensuring the Success of Utility-Scale PV Projects – through complete understanding On-line registration The Market For many years photovoltaics has been a prime technology for the supply of small-scale decentralized energy. However, with falling costs, advances in technology and new areas of application the size of PV systems has grown dramatically. Plants of three-digit MWp are in the planning stage and GWp plants are already being evaluated. The world of small solar systems costing a few thousand dollars has mushroomed into one of huge projects requiring the investment of hundreds of millions of dollars. Small systems with outputs in the kWp area are easy to integrate into the power grid. They are steadily extended through the addition of more generation units. These multi-MWp systems present entirely new challenges for grid-integration. Along with the larger output, comes increased responsibility for the plant operator in terms of network stability. Planning and construction of the MWp first plants in the years 20042008 were hindered by market scarcity of modules as well as by unclear market conditions, particularly in Spain. So, for example, plants had to be built with differing module types, quality assurance was often patchy, and plant construction was slow. However rolling forward to 2009, multi-MWp plants are now being supplied by the established plant manufacturers, to proven quality standards. Along with the falling cost of modules, pressure is growing for swift reductions in installation time and costs. In addition, international standards for Total Quality Management and Intelligent Network-Integration must be established. For investors, the complex matrix of criteria for comprehensive project evaluation must become more transparent. The Conference PV Power Plants is the world‘s first conference to focus exclusively on “Utility-Scale Solar Power Plants,” the market segment for systems that require very high capital investment. Solarpraxis, with its engineering background, undertook numerous yield assessments and project support activities in 2008 for > 200 MWp projects. Their experience will ensure that the program addresses the truly crucial issues facing the industry today. |
