Most solar parks are ground mounted PV systems, also known as free-field solar power plants. They can either be fixed tilt or use a single axis or dual axis solar tracker. While tracking improves the overall performance, it also increases the system''s installation and maintenance cost. A solar inverter converts the array''s power output from DC to AC, and connection to the utility grid is made through a

Solar Power Plant – Types, Components, Layout and Operation

It is a large-scale PV plant designed to produce bulk electrical power from solar radiation. The solar power plant uses solar energy to produce electrical power. Therefore, it is a conventional
