Abstract

Performance Ratio (PR) is a globally accepted indicator to judge the performance of grid connected PV Plants. There are good examples from countries like the US, Australia and those in the European Union who have used PR as a key performance indicator to judge the performance of their PV systems. Such an analysis has helped these countries in continuously increasing the performance of their plants by rectifying system faults and thus plan for better investment decisions.
