A Practical Guide for Total Engineering of MW capacity Solar PV Power Project

This book is a practical guide for the complete engineering of the PV solar power plants-core theme is the designing and construction of these plants followed by operation and maintenance. Lot of theories on this subject are available in the libraries and also on the net. But not much is available on the practical aspect of the solar power plants. The author inserted and supreme posed his actual field experience of designing, constructing, commissioning, operating and maintaining solar PV power generating plants on the world's best theories and texts on the subject.The practical meaning of STC, NOCT, Solar Cable, MPPT, PID, Irradiance, Shadow E ect on the plant, Losses, Meteonom, PV Syst, PR, CUF and many more terms are explained in very simple technical language in this book. Actually this book is a "Made Easy of Total Engineering of PV Solar Power Plants in India". This is a must buy book for all budding engineers, who want to opt for the solar energy field engineering as their job.

The author of this book, A.S.Kapur is an electrical power generation professional, having more than 30 years experience in the electrical field. He has worked on the power generators of Hydroelectric, Thermal and finally Solar. Having retired as Dy.Chief Engineer from the Rajasthan State Electricity Board, he entered into the solar power generation field. His field of work started with the designing of PV based solar power plants all over India. After designing, he was also involved in the procurement, planning, construction and O&M activities of the solar PV power plants. Presently, he is heading a team of young engineers, who have been trained in this field of solar power. He has to his credit, about 20 plants which are generating solar power at very high PR and CUF.
