Syed and Kaamran Raahemifar}, country = {}, institution = {}, abstract = {This paper presents comparative analysis of photovoltaic systems (PVS) and propose practical techniques to improve operational efficiency of the PVS. The best engineering and construction practices for PVS are identified and field oriented recommendation are made. Comparative analysis of central and string inverter based, as well as 600 and 1000VDC PVS are performed. In addition, direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC) photovoltaic (PV) module based systems are compared. Comparison shows that 1000V DC String Inverters based PVS is the best choice.}, journal = {International Journal of Energy and Power Engineering}, volume = {9}, number = {10}, year = {2015}, pages = {1134 - 1141}, ee = {https://publications.waset.org/pdf/10002607}, url = {https://publications.waset.org/vol/106}, bibsource = {https://publications.waset.org/}, issn = {eISSN: 1307-6892}, publisher = {World Academy of Science, Engineering and Technology}, index = {Open Science Index 106, 2015}, }
