Advanced Performance Analytics Application (A-PAA)
Our Advanced Performance Analytics Application (A-PAA) tool enables our technical experts to perform a faster, more detailed analysis of the long-term performance of PV assets.A-PAA provides unique insight using Machine Learning and Data Science techniques and supports our consultants’ analysis to detect underperformance and to protect the present and future value of the assets. To accomplish this A-PAA provides:
- Identification of recoverable unavailability and systemic underperformance
- Detection of periods of Point of Interconnection (POI)/ Point of Common Coupling (PCC)-level and inverter-level downtime and quantify the lost energy
- Calculation of long-term average annual degradation
- Calculation of a site-specific daily soiling rate based on the production data of the asset that allows for a realistic calculation of the soiling losses
- Calculation of actual AC losses between the inverter and Point of Interconnection (POI)/ Point of Common Coupling (PCC)
- Detection of tracker failures and estimation of its impact in the asset production
- Calculation of curtailment losses
- Interactive visualizations that can show performance from a high-level annual view down to the highest granularity available
- Direct comparisons to P50, and Weather-Adjusted P50 from both an energy and performance ratio perspective
Witness how A-PAA’s fluid and hassle-free tool, empowers consultants to analyze renewable energy assets, ensuring their present and future value through detailed production evolution, accurate soiling rate calculations, and precise detection of tracker failures and their impact on asset production.
