1.0 INTRODUCTION

The 9.0 MWac Self Consumption Large Scale Solar Photovoltaic (Selco-LSSPV) plant has
operated since 20th April 2023 (from now on referred to as “the Plant”). This Selco-LSSPV
plant located in Sungai Selangor Phase 2 (SSP2) Water Treatment Plant, 45000 Bestari
Jaya, Selangor.

The maximum Plant AC Output is 9 MWac and while Plant DC capacity is 11.7216 Wdc
Peak. The generated Solar PV Energy exported to SSP2 WTP for own consumption,
through Point of Common Coupling (PCC) at 33kV SSP2 WTP Substation. The 33kV
Underground XLPE Cable is used as a medium of energy transmission from LSSPV Plant
to the Substation.

The main objective of this report is to conduct Reliability Run Test which is one of the test
requirements based on SEDA guideline. The reliability of the system is tested by using
Performance Ratio Test.

3.1 Performance Ratio (PR)

The performance ratio (PR) is a measure of the quality of a PV plant that depends
on the irradiance data, and it, therefore, often described as a quality factor. The
closer the PR value determined for a PV plant approaches 100 %, the more
efficiently the respective PV plant is operating. PR is calculated by following
equations:-

Item Value
Module Efficency, η𝑚𝑜𝑑 21.2%
Area of Array, 𝐴𝑝𝑣 (m2) = L x W x Qty
=1.303m x 2.384m x 17,760pcs
= 55,168.81 m2

Accept if: PR is greater than or equal 0.8.

Energy yield and Irradiation data have been collected from SCADA monitoring
system which is logging by the logger for every 5 minutes. Based on the PR
calculation, the performance of the plant from 20th August 2023 until 10th
September 2023 (22days) have been pass with the result ratio from 0.82 to 1.12
(excluding the day of irradiation data loss).
