3. Conclusion

Photovoltaic cells still offer scope for improvement, and the market for power plants is booming throughout the European Union and the rest of the world.

Today, the majority of photovoltaic power plants have a full sale valuation mode, with photovoltaic electricity becoming less expensive than grid electricity. Grid parity, a state in which the cost of the kWh produced by self-generation is equal to the cost of the kWh purchased from the grid, has been reached in many countries, including France since 2017, according to ADEME. As a result, more and more solar installations for self-consumption are appearing.

A photovoltaic power plant is made up of several components, from the module to the connection. It's therefore essential to study and make the right choices when designing a plant, based on the opportunity and feasibility of a potential...
