While I was thinking and dreaming up analysing mega watt projects, I suddenly realised I still hadn't got the pricing of Solar PV module correct, the dollar to rupee differential had changed and while the a dollar traded to some fifty rupees just a month back, it was now trading at Rs 60, everything was very fluid, so I got into the act of calling some suppliers and here's what I came up with, now this might not be accurate enough, but if I quote a date to it, say 13/07/2013, it would make sense to a lot of people :
Solar PV Module
1. Solar Module 200 watt ,18 Volt, 54 cells Rs 47.00/watt
2. Solar Module 225 watt ,20 Volt, 60 cells Rs 48.00/watt
3. Solar Module 230 watt ,20 Volt, 60 cells Rs 48.00/watt
4. Solar Module 240 watt ,24 Volt, 60 cells Rs 47.00/watt
5. Solar Module 250 watt ,24 Volt, 72 cells Rs 48.00/watt
6. Solar Module 270 watt ,24 Volt, 72 cells Rs 47.00/watt
7. Solar Module 280 watt ,24 Volt, 72 cells Rs 45.00/watt
8. Solar Module 300 watt ,24 Volt, 72 cells Rs 49.00/watt
Now, I also noticed that the prices for higher wattage modules was relatively cheaper than the prices for lower wattage modules which was much higher going up to Rs 100/watt, this price I don't mention here due to lack of relevance to mega watt projects.
Given the life cycle of a solar project which goes upto 25 years that is 300 months, the product quality is of utmost important, the above price list was sourced from Synergy Electric. The system design obviously plays a huge role in setting up a solar PV plant, for instance a 1 MW plant would require the following components, assuming two building blocks of 500 kW each :
1. Photo Voltaic Array Strings.
2. Sub-Array Combiner Box.
3. Back Feed Protection.
4. Surge Protection.
5. 2 nos 500 kW Inverters.
6. AC Breakers.
7. Integrated High Efficiency Transformer.
8. AC Surge Protection.
9. Interconnection Point.
10.Controls for Data Monitoring.
Combining the above mentioned system elements with an appropriate cabling will give a Mega Watt Design, but more on this later, if you have any feedback on this or need to give your inputs on this I can be reached at info@freshenergy.co or maninder.s.kumar@gmail.com
