PV system losses are the variance between the expected maximum output energy of a solar energy system and the actual energy it provides. A solar PV system loss occurs at various phases of energy conversion and transfer, from the solar radiation hitting the panels to providing usable electricity to your home or the grid.
The performance of a photovoltaic (PV) system is highly affected by different types of power losses which are incurred by electrical equipment or altering weather conditions. In this context, an accurate analysis of power losses for a PV system is of significant importance.
Plant engineers assume another 2-3% in losses from equipment downtime as a result of faults or grid outages. Panel degradation causes around 0.8% in power losses every year. As we have seen, most of the causes of PV system losses are related to design factors or component characteristics.
Important: The breakdown of losses shows absolute loss values (non-cumulative). This table details monthly energy losses throughout the PV system, starting from the initial solar input and tracking reductions at each stage:
