Newman power station photovoltaic project: Phase 3, Operation and maintenance: Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:6616278
The Newman Power Station (NPS) photovoltaic system provides dc power to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The UPS is an integral part of the generator control subsystem at the El Paso Electric Company (EPEC) facility near El Paso, Texas. The photovoltaic (PV) system has been operational since January 27, 1981, and has produced 69,871 kilowatt hours through April 30, 1983. On an annual basis this PV energy provides approximately 15% of the UPS load requirements. The system is technically sound and EPEC plans continued operation for the foreseeable future.
