Once the designing for any project is done, one can easily get the reports of the project by downloading them from the design summary page of the TSL. You can find a list of reports being attached explaining,
· The performance,
· System metrics,
· Financial analysis,
· Environmental impacts.
A short explanation about the reports attached, in a lucid manner is given below,
Page-wise reports are explained here,
1. Client information page
In this page, we have the details about the customer namely their name, address and GPS coordinates.
We also have the top view of the desired rooftop model and provision to walk through the 3D model is given by a link below.
2. System metrics
In this page, we can see the overall generation and performance of the system designed in TSL.
a. Annual production
The total energy generated during the simulation, in KWh or MWh
b. Specific generation
The total annual production divided by the system DC nameplate power
c. Performance ratio
It is the ratio of Annual Production and Nominal Plant Output, where nominal plant output is the product of incident energy on the plant and efficiency of modules
Also, other nameplate details.
Note:
Higher the PR and specific generation, higher will be the performance of the project.
3. Estimated savings
Based on the pricing details the pricing data provided, the savings and ROI are calculated along with the payback period.
For more information on the calculation refer to this blog article on The Solar Labs.yyyy
4. Components
Here, we have a detailed list of components used in the project by providing BOS. This serves the purpose of installation and makes them work with ease.
5. Generation data
a. Monthly production data
b. Monthly table
This table provides the output data in terms of panel-level as well as the gird level. One can assess the performance of the plant with the help of these data.
i. Irradiation data
ii. Earray
iii. Egrid
iv. Spec gen
v. PR
6. Field segments.
In this page, we can find the details of the panels that are installed along with their orientations, numbers and their power ratings of the same.
7. Simulation report
Here we have the bird’s eye view of the heat map and the solar access for the panels
a. Heat map
b. Solar access
8. Losses.
Various losses associated with the rooftop designing are grouped into major sections as,
§ Ir-radiance losses - covered with white
§ Dc losses - covered by the blue
§ AC losses - covered by bluish-green
9. Cost of not going solar.
This is a chart that portrays the difference in the energy bill amount with and without the solar rooftop installation. This gives a better idea of saving of going green.
10. Environmental Impacts.
The last page on the report covers the impact of going solar to the environment. We see a huge benefit of opting solar energy and freeing the use of fossil fuels. The key features noticed are,
# Carbon-Di-oxide offset
# Area of forest saved.
# Coal burnt avoided.
The report is aimed at enhancing the sales segment by proving features which are difficult to collect in a short time. Here, in The solar labs, the design report is created in few seconds with much valued featured in it.
