ANNUAL PV PLANT PERFORMANCE CERTIFICATE

INTRODUCTION

Arguably, the most important aspects of assessment of a PV system require documentation of

the performance of the system and the cost to maintain the system at that level. A Conditional
PV Project Certificate may be completed at the time a PV system is commissioned as
described in IECRE OD-401 Conditional PV Plant Certificate, providing information about the
design, quality control during installation, and initial performance. The Annual PV Plant
Performance Certificate is intended to be completed after one full year of operation (or
subsequent full years of operation) so as to quantify the observed performance of the system
and document maintenance costs. This Operational Document describes the requirements for
the Annual PV Plant Performance Certificate based on application of IEC 61724 Photovoltaic
System Performance, Part 3, documenting the electrical energy delivered relative to what
would be expected for the measured weather. Losses in output are separated into times when
the system is not functioning and when the system is functioning. Additionally, the cost of
maintenance is documented. Subsequent annual application of this certification can provide a
means to track the health and ongoing performance of a system throughout its life.

1 Scope
This Operational Document defines the requirements for issuance of an Annual PV Plant
Performance Certificate that reflects the ongoing performance of the system. The Annual PV
Plant Performance Certificate reports performance data from a full year of operation so as to
quantify the observed performance of the system as well as documenting the maintenance
costs to achieve stated performance and availability.

The Annual PV Plant Performance Certificate may also be issued annually to reflect the
ongoing health of the PV system throughout its life and may be a key input for assessment of
overall certification of the plant.

3 Terms and definitions

For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in the International
Electrotechnical Commission Glossary (http://std.iec.ch/glossary and the following apply.

3.1
Energy availability
metric of energy throughput capability that quantifies the expected energy when the system is
operating relative to the total expected energy. The energy availability is calculated from the
energy unavailability and may be expressed as a percentage or a fraction.

3.2
Energy unavailability
metric that quantifies the energy lost when the system is not operating (as judged by an
automatic indication of functionality such as the inverter status flag indicating that the inverter
is actively converting DC to AC electricity or not). The energy unavailability is the ratio of the
expected energy (as calculated from the original model and the measured weather data) that
cannot be delivered because of inverters or other components being off line divided by the
total expected energy for the year. The energy unavailability may be expressed as a
percentage or a fraction. Energy unavailability may be caused by issues either internal or
external to the PV system.

3.3
External-cause-excluded energy availability
metric that quantifies the expected energy when the system is operating relative to the total
expected energy during times when it was possible for the plant to be operating. Exclusions
are made for times when the grid is not operating or for other times when the plant was not
operating for reasons outside of the control of the plant.

3.4
Predicted energy
energy generation of a PV system that is calculated with a specific performance model, using
historical weather data that is considered to be representative for the site, whereby the
specific performance model has been agreed to by all stakeholders to the test. See Figure 1.
The historical weather data may be gathered from a weather station that’s within reasonable
proximity to the site.

3.5
Expected energy
energy generation of a PV system that is calculated with the same specific performance
model as that used in the predicted energy model, using actual weather data collected at the
site during operation of the system for the year in question. The weather data is collected
locally at the site.
NOTE: The expected energy is used to calculate the Energy Performance Index.
3.6
Measured energy
electric energy that is measured to have been generated by the PV system during the test
over the same duration as the expected energy model.
NOTE 1: See also 3.14 Test boundary to define the location of measurement
IECRE OD-402:2016 © IEC 2016 –5–

3.7
Performance index
electricity generation of a PV system relative to expected, as defined in IEC 61724-1 1 and
calculated as described in IEC 61724-3
3.8
Energy performance index
electricity generation of a PV system relative to the expected energy over a specified time
period, as defined in IEC 61724-1 and calculated according to IEC 61724-3. The energy
performance index may refer to all times or only times of availability as defined by the all-in
energy performance index or the in-service energy performance index, respectively.

3.9
All-in energy performance index
electricity generation of a PV system relative to the total expected energy over a specified
time period, including times when the system is not functioning

3.10
In-service energy performance index
electricity generation of a PV system relative to the expected energy over a specified time
period during times when the system is functioning (excluding times when inverters or other
components are detected to be off line).

3.11
Power performance index
electricity generation of a PV system relative to expected power production for a specified set
of conditions, as defined in IEC 61724-1 and calculated as in IEC 61724-2 2.

4 General Provisions
The normative ISO/IEC references define the general program requirements for RECBs and
REIBs operating under the PV program.

Additional requirements for RECBs and REIBs operating the PV program are described in
IECRE 01, IECRE 02, and IECRE 04 PV-OMC Rules of Procedure.

5 PV System Performance Simulation

The system performance model shall be recorded for at least the year of operation being
analysed. Preferably, the model results are recorded for the anticipated life of the system, as
described in Table 1 and using the guidance described below to provide a basis for
comparison to the Performance Test Results.

* A line should be included for each year of expected operation.

** This column should indicate the predicted electrical production after reducing the modelled
electrical production to reflect the predicted unavailability.

5.1 Annual In-plane Irradiation used by simulation, H i

The annual irradiation that forms the basis of the simulated performance for the system is
documented as described in Table 1. The test report shall indicate the source of this data.

If the plane-of-array of the PV array is variable or poorly defined, it may be chosen to

document the horizontal irradiation instead, taking care to align the reporting described in
sections 5 and 6.

5.2 Annual predicted active electrical production, E out (active) predicted

The active (real) output energy predicted for each year starting at the time of commissioning
should be documented as shown in Table 1, reflecting anticipated degradation during the life
of the system, anticipated soiling losses, etc. The active output energy, E out (as measured at
the point of metered connection to the grid) is defined in IEC 61724-1 in Table 3 and section
7.6. The predicted electrical production should be reduced by the anticipated unavailability
and for non-unity power factor.

5.3 Predicted availability

Operation of the PV plant may be intentionally stopped for maintenance purposes or may be
interrupted because of hardware failure or lack of grid availability. The availability assumed
for prediction of the annual electrical production shall be recorded as part of Table 1. The
availability may also be the output of a reliability prediction analysis. The basis, methodology
and source of the availability estimate shall be indicated in the test report. If the prediction of
annual electrical production did not consider the availability, then 100% theoretical (assumed)
energy availability is recorded in Table 1.

5.4 Predicted cost of operations and maintenance (O&M)

If an estimate has been made as to the anticipated O&M costs for each year, this should be
documented for comparison to the actual values. IEC 60300-3-3 is an application guide for
Life Cycle Costing and can be utilized to develop the cost models. The below figure
reproduced from IEC 60300-3-3 illustrates the relationship between dependability and LCC
costs for the operational and maintenance phase.

For the intent of this analysis, the costs (acquisition, ownership and consequence aspects
only) associated with operations and maintenance phase only are considered for reporting. All
other costs related to design, manufacturing, installation and disposal are excluded from the
LCC analysis. In addition for simplicity, only the reportable loss of revenue, warranty and
liability costs are considered for reporting of consequential costs.

6 PV System Performance Test Results

The system performance shall be analysed to include the metrics according to Table 2 and
with guidance described below. The IEC 61724-1 measurement class defines the accuracy
required for the measurement. The certificate type (U1, U2, U3, or U4) defines which analyses
are completed.

6.1 One-year In-Plane Irradiation, H i

The performance of a PV plant will reflect the irradiation received during the one-year test
period, so a critical piece of the assessment is to identify the irradiation during that time
period. Depending on the class of the measurement, satellite data may be used to derive the
irradiance during the test period, as described in IEC 61724-1 Ed. 2, section 7, Table 3. The
integration of the irradiance to obtain the irradiation is described in IEC 61724-1 Ed. 2 Section
9.3, Table 10. The total in-plane irradiation is reported, including times when the PV plant was
not available. These data are compared directly to the data used for the initial PV plant
assessment (Table 1 above), so every effort should be made to align the definition of the
quantities in Tables 1 and 2, as described in IEC 61724-3.

If the plane of the PV array is variable or poorly defined, it may be chosen to document the
horizontal irradiance instead, taking care to align the reporting described in sections 6 and 7
(and Tables 1 and 2).

6.2 One-year Output Energy, E out

The active output energy will be measured for one year starting at the time of commissioning
or at a different date as long as a full year of data can be evaluated. The output energy (as
IECRE OD-402:2016 © IEC 2016 –9–

measured at the point of metered connection to the grid) is defined in IEC 61724-1 in Table 3
and section 7.6. Data filtering and correction are described in IEC 61724-3. The value
reported here shall be consistent with the analysis of section 7.

6.3 One-year active energy expected during observed system unavailability

As defined in IEC 61724-3, the active energy (calculated using the actual power factor)
expected during times of observed system availability during the performance period is
reported. The test report shall comment on the observed unavailability and the associated
causes for each event exceeding 0.1% of the annual expected energy, including whether the
reduced availability was caused by external factors, such as lack of grid availability, whether
the reduced availability was associated with a specific hardware item, or a system interaction
issue and whether the issue was resolved.

6.4 Observed cost of operations and maintenance (O&M)

The cost of the O&M experienced during the test period is reported for comparison with the
original prediction. The actual costs are tracked based on an accounting structure that tracks
the costs incurred for each of the corresponding sub categories as estimated in section 5.4.
The comparison can be simplified to an annual expected versus actual comparison for
reporting purposes.

6.5 Output power measurement

Optionally, the output power, P out , as defined in Table 3 and section 7.6 of IEC 61724-1 is
measured for reference test conditions using the method described in IEC 61724-2. The
measurement may be reported for each inverter or for the entire system as measured at the
point of metered grid connection. The reference test conditions used for IEC 61724-2 shall be
reported along with the output power measurement result. If applicable, the plant performance
is reported both for constrained and unconstrained operation as described in Section 8, item
15 in IEC 61724-2.

7 Calculation of derived metrics

The data defined in Table 2 can be used to calculate various performance metrics. These
performance metrics are defined more thoroughly in IEC 61724, but the descriptions and
formulas are included here for convenience. The choice of which metrics to report on the
certificate is optional, but each of these metrics can be derived from the data reported in
Section 6.

7.1 Capacity Factor

The capacity factor is a metric commonly applied to power plants and allows direct
comparison between PV and other power plants. It’s calculation is based on the AC rating of
the plant and defines the fraction of electrical energy that was generated compared with what
the plant would have generated if it operated at the rated power 100% of the time.

Capacity Factor = (E out /AC rating)/(24*days)

Where E out is in kWh, the AC rating is in kW as calculated from the sum of the inverter ratings,
and days is the number of days of the test – typically 365 or 366.

7.2 Performance Ratio

The performance ratio (as defined in IEC 61724-1, section 10.3.1) reflects the electrical
energy generated relative to the amount of irradiation and the DC rating of the plant. It is
calculated from

Performance ratio = (E out / P 0 ) / (H i / G i,ref )

2
Where E out is in kWh, P 0 is the DC rating is in kW, H i is the irradiation in kW/m , and G i,ref is
2
the irradiance used for rating the modules, usually 1 kWh/m .
 – 10 – IECRE OD-402:2016 © IEC 2016

7.3 Energy Availability

Poor performance of a PV system may be divided into times when the system is not
functioning and other times when the system is functioning, but at reduced output because of
non-ideal performance. Following the definition provided in IEC 61724-3 and implemented in a
convenient and cost-effective way, a PV system or part of a system is considered to be
unavailable when it’s status is observed to be non-functional. For example, if the status
register of an inverter indicates that the inverter is off line, or, (for example) if a measurement
of a string current indicates that a string has become disconnected, the associated generation
of electrical power will be stopped. It is typically quite expensive to instrument a system for
the sake of collecting this status data, so the availability calculation may typically be related
to observed inverter data, but other situations are also possible. The availability is calculated
as:

Energy Availability = 1 – (E out expected during times of unavailability/Total expected E out )

Where the E out is the active energy.

The External Cause-excluded energy availability is calculated in a similar way, but reducing
the denominator to reflect the expected energy when it would have been possible to operate
the plant. This metric excludes issues that are outside of the plant’s control.

7.4 Energy Performance Index

The energy performance index (as defined in IEC 61724-1, section 10.4, Table 11 and as
calculated using the approach of IEC 61724-3) is measured for a full year starting at the time
of commissioning or at a different date as long as a full year of data can be evaluated. The
in-service performance index is calculated only for times when the system is available, as
described in IEC 61724-3 and shall be consistent with the analysis used for the reported
energy availability and AC output energy. The energy performance index is calculated from
the expected energy (applying the original model applied to the measured irradiation, as
described in IEC 61724-3) according to:

In-service Energy Performance index = E out Measured / E out Expected

Where both values are calculated only for times when the PV system is considered to be
available.

All-in Energy Performance index = E out Measured / E out Expected

Where both values are calculated for all times.

 Annex B: Prediction of Energy Availability (informative)
B.1 Prediction of Energy Availability
Predictions of availability estimates can be generated over the operating lifetime of the PV
plant by utilizing simulation models built of Reliability Block Diagrams (RBD’s). Each field
repairable or replaceable (FRU) unit of the PV system is represented by a RBD and these
RBD’s can be interconnected to model the overall system reliability model. A RBD model is a
graphical representation of how the components of a system are reliability-wise connected
which are generally either arranged in series or parallel or a hybrid series-parallel connection
to accurately represent the system from a reliability standpoint. RBD’s are described in IEC
61078 standard.
Once a RBD model is developed for the system, it can then be populated with information on
the repair and maintenance characteristics of the components and resources available in the
system, other information can also be analyzed/obtained, such as system availability,
throughput, spare parts utilization, life cycle costs, etc. for any discrete time in the operating
life of the plant. This can be accomplished through discrete event simulation.

Each RBD in the system can be assigned with parametric distributions modelling the FRU’s
reliability characteristics such as failure rate distribution or Mean Time Between Failures
(MTBF); the FRU’s repair or restoration properties such as troubleshooting and fault detection
duration distributions or Mean Time to Detect (MTTD), its repair/restoration distribution or
Mean time to Repair (MTTR); its logistic delay distributions as well as part repair or
replacement costs; in addition to organized repair crews, behaviours of crews, spare part
pools etc.

Commercially available reliability prediction and simulation packages are available to facilitate
generation of reliability, availability and total cost of operational expense estimates. In
addition throughput simulation models allow us to model the overall energy delivered at the
top system level considering impacts of outages and degradation of sub system components.
From these costs of downtime inclusive of repair and loss of energy costs can be calculated.
