Abstract

Solar Energy intensity varies geographically in India, but western Rajasthan receives the highest annual radiation energy. The present work will describe the performance parameters of IOCL Rawara Plant which have capacity of 5 MW. The technology used is polycrystalline silicon. The generated power is fed to the 32 kV grid. The data have been recorded from October 2012 to May 2013. The AC power generated by different blocks is plotted against hours of a day, and also, wind speed and module temperature are taken into account. The accumulated energy of all operating month has been recorded.
