Abstract

This paper summarizes the operational performance results of the first grid-connected building integrated photovoltaic (BIPV) system installed in Colombia (in Bogotá, at 4°35′ latitude and 2.580m altitude) after two years of monitoring. The performance monitoring was carried out with a sophisticated monitoring system, designed and implemented by us using the virtual instrumentation concept. The following parameters were measured: DC and AC power, inverter and system conversion efficiency, energy generated by the PV array, AC energy produced by the BIPV system, parameters to analyze power quality (%THD, harmonic components, frequency, voltage, flickers, power factor, active power, apparent power and reactive power), solar radiation in the inclination plane of the panels and environment temperature.
