Research on performance ratio composition and standard energy efficiency ratio correction method of photovoltaic power station

Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract The performance ratio (PR) of the system is used to quantify the power generation efficiency of the photovoltaic power generation system. The size of the index is affected by many factors. After the environmental impact is compensated, the standard energy efficiency ratio (PRstc) of the system is obtained.
