Solar Project Economics
Are you considering a solar power plant but wondering if the investment will pay off?
Let's explain how at Alternative Energy Systems we approach optimizing the return on your investment and which factors most influence the economics of photovoltaic power plants.
Every facility has a different electricity consumption pattern and every roof or land has different conditions.
That's why we start with thorough analysis of your energy consumption and local conditions. Based on this data, we design a power plant with optimal capacity that ensures maximum utilization of produced energy directly in your facility. This individual approach has a direct impact on the project's economic return.
Instead, we prepare a detailed analysis based on your actual consumption, available grants and surplus utilization possibilities.
We predict production according to location, panel tilt and orientation using PVGIS system (Photovoltaic Geographical Information System). We can determine production prediction with accuracy up to 5%.
Our goal is for you to know exactly what you can expect from your investment.
Thanks to the monitoring system we implemented, we can demonstrate on a real example of a photovoltaic power plant in Vlkoš what the comparison of prediction from the project phase with actual results looks like.
Prediction using PVGIS system (Photovoltaic Geographical Information System) based on analysis of 10-year sunshine data showed expected annual production of 300 MWh. After one year of operation, monitoring recorded actual production of 315 MWh, which represents 105% of predicted value. Thanks to this accurate data, the customer could better evaluate their investment return.
