Abstract
A 300 kW power polycrystalline photovoltaic (PV) power plant installed at an educational institution was analyzed. The efficiency of PV panel is influenced by environmental factors like solar intensity, ambient temperature, and wind speed. Additionally, factors like the temperature of the panels, dust accumulation, hotspots, and shadow effects can also impact their performance. The effect of climate on a 300 kW power polycrystalline PV power plant installed at B. S. Abdur Rahman Crescent Institute of Science and Technology was studied in Chennai, India, by comparing the annual performance. For the studied 300 kW power PV system, April month was a better energy generation month than the other months during the year 2022. Enviroeconomic analysis gives information regarding the Carbon Dioxide (CO2) mitigation possible from the proposed plant. The maximum Enviroeconomic cost obtained by considering the system's life as 20 years was 133,723.79 $/annum during the year 2020.
