Losses between DC net and monthly energy was created by Princess_Zaynab
Hello,

Please I am writing because I have a problem after making a simulation.
I plot the "DC net" and find some values.
After that I plot "monthly energy" and find values that are inferior to "DC net".

I don't understand why I have these losts, I chose the inverter that is respecting the condition "(Voc, Vsc) of the module inside the MPPT range of the inverter".

Can you help me please?

Thanks in advance,
Zaynab

Dear Zaynab,

Based on your previous posts, I assume you are asking about the high-concentration photovoltaic (HCPV) model.

I would expect "monthly energy" to be less than "DC net" because of conversion losses from DC to AC.

Best regards,
Paul.
