Performance evaluation of large power PV irrigation systems

Large power diesel-based or grid-connected irrigation systems are being replaced by battery-free large power stand-alone Photovoltaic Irrigation Systems (PVIS) for which no experimental performance data are available. However, these experimental data are crucial since knowing the expected performance values is key to establish quality thresholds in ...
