Basic info

Description

The chart breaks down the deviations between a system’s forecasted yield, the simulated yields and the actual yield. Therefore it displays the following values for the selected system:

  • Forecasted yield from the Yield forecast

    • and its difference to the simulated yield without curtailments, displayed as Difference yield forecast/simulation

    • both displayed only as of icon-calendar-month.png Month view

  • Simulated yield without curtailments, displayed as Simulation without considering active power curtailments

    • and its difference to the simulated yield with curtailments, displayed as Power control losses

  • Simulated yield considering active power curtailments, displayed as Expected energy (simulation)

    • and its difference to the actual yield, displayed either as

      • Over-performance or

      • Losses

  • Actual Yield

Prerequisites

  • Configure Simulation: Determine a Method and Target range for the simulated power. See also Simulation.

Further details

  • Values for the simulated, expected yields depend on your selection of the simulation method.

  • Power control losses are only displayed if an active power curtailment occurred within the selected period.

  • Losses consist of:

    • Negative deviations outside of the target range of the simulated yield with curtailments

    • Losses due to technical issues specified in tickets

    • Losses due to data/communication gaps (loss extent calculated on satellite data)

  • Yield forecast values are only visible if a yield forecast is configured, see Configure yield forecast.
