In this paper, the grid-connected photovoltaic plant of the University of Calabria is presented. The photovoltaic plant has a peak power of 2.7 kW, and has been projected and built near the Building Energy Research Laboratory of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Calabria.The plant is suitably monitored for the experimental validation of the models and of the simulation codes that allow the evaluation of the performance of the single components and of the overall plant. In this paper, some experimental results of the efficiencies of the photovoltaic field and of the inverter are presented, as well as other plant data.
