Plant Energy Performance Ratio Testing

Module power output degradation factor of 1% per year shall be applied. The min. guaranteed energy performance ratio of the system for the first 5 years shall be as listed in the table below. The table shall be used for monitoring the plant performance. Please refer penalty clause in Integrity Pact in the event of non-compliance with min. energy performance ratio. No. of years 1 2 3 4 5 Min. Energy Performance Ratio (%) 75 74.25 73.5 72.75 72

The energy performance ratio testing shall be based on PV power plant AC energy meter reading (installed at the inverter output and provided separately by vendor) and NOT based on energy output recorded by inverter or data acquisition system. Example: 100kWp PV power plant PV power plant AC energy meter reading for 48 hrs = 800 kWh Global solar insolation in POA for 48 hrs = 10 kWh/m2 Energy Performance Ratio = 800/(100x10) = 0.8 or 80%

Operation and Maintenance

1. Detailed specification sheets for solar module, inverter, DC and AC protection and isolation components, GFDI, DC and AC cables and energy meters shall be provided. 2. Detailed specifications shall be also provided for data acquisition system and solar and environment monitoring system. 3. Operation and maintenance manuals shall be provided for all equipment supplied. 4. As-built array layout and wiring diagrams shall be provided. 5. List of recommended spares shall be provided for the systems supplied. 6. The supply of spare parts on site shall be provided on yearly
