Evaluation of the Production probability forecast

The probability distribution of the system production forecast for different years is mainly dependent
on the meteo data used for the simulation, and depends on the following choices:
Meteo data source SolarGIS Monthly aver. , period not spec.
Meteo data Kind Not defined Year 1995
Specified Deviation Year deviation from aver. 3%
Year-to-year variability Variance 1.0 %

The probability distribution variance is also depending on some system parameters uncertainties
Specified Deviation PV module modelling/parameters 2.0 %
Inverter efficiency uncertainty 0.5 %
Soiling and mismatch uncertainties 1.0 %
Degradation uncertainty 1.0 %
Global variability (meteo + system) Variance 2.7 % (quadratic sum)

Annual production probability Variability 0.74 MWh

P50 27.37 MWh
P90 26.42 MWh
P95 26.16 MWh
