(See Figure 2) Statement of opportunities, EMa (2010). MWp or Megawatts-peak is a measure of power output, used in relation to solar PV panels. a 1 MWp solar PV system will produce 1 MW electricity under ideal conditions.
This paper presents the performance analysis of a 23 MWp photovoltaic solar power plant installed in Diass, Senegal. The solar photovoltaic power plant is composed of 85608 polycrystalline PV modules and 8 transformer stations (TS). Each TS consists of 4 inverters, several DC BOX and 2 transformers.
For solar cells, Wp is the maximum capacity the panel can produce under optimal conditions or Standard Test Conditions, including a photovoltaic cell temperature of 25°C, a solar irradiance of 1,000 watts per square meter, and the incidence angle of sunlight for a latitude of 35° north during summer.
When possible, the Global Solar Power Tracker specifies whether this nameplate capacity is MW AC or MW p (also referred to as MW DC). If the nameplate capacity says simply MW, it means the reference did not specify whether the reported capacity is MW AC or MW p.
The megawatt capacity of a solar generating station, unless expressly stated otherwise, should be the AC output capacity. Ideally this should be referred to as MWAC. Where those following this norm express capacity as MW, it will be assumed to mean MWAC. Where the DC capacity is quoted it should always be expressed as MWP.
While some sources helpfully quote both measures, the prevailing norm6 has been for North American developers to express system capacity in MWAC with Europeans preferring MWP. The use of a megawatt peak rating is unique to photovoltaics. Indeed most forms of power generation produce AC directly and therefore have no DC rating.
