In a PV power plant of 600 kW capacity, a large number of PV modules are connected in series and parallel. If the desired voltage at maximum power point is 500 V . Design the number of PV modules to be connected in a single series (PV module string) to obtain voltage at maximum power point of 500 V . Also, estimate the peak power that will be supplied by one such PV module string. The parameters of PV modules to be used are:
V_(oc)=36V,V_(m)=30V,I_(sc)=8.2A and I_(m)=7.4A
Estimate the number of parallel strings to generate the 600 kW at a voltage of 500 V . How many modules in this Solar PV system plant?
