Abstract
ENEA (Italian National Agency for New Technology, Energy and Environment) is currently conducting a comprehensive photovoltaic energy promotional campaign aimed at the development of innovative industrial processes, as well as, at the implementation of demonstration plants. With its first 300 kW section already built, the Delphos plant is the biggest one so far, in terms of installed power, in Europe. The plant is currently grid connected, while the stand alone configuration is under implementation. Based on a preliminary data analysis, the actual photovoltaic array power results to be about 85% of the nominal peak power, due to cell operating temperature, module mismatch and ohmic losses. Taking into account the efficiency of the conditioning system, the effective plant output is about 78% of the array nominal power.
