I am trying to understand why the losses in the parameter settings are different compared to the losses in the loss diagram. I highlighted two examples.
I tried running a calculation to determine what the total LID losses are. My calculation to compare the LID losses is as follows:
43.12GWh * 1.60% LID loss = 0.68992GWh loss.
versus
43.12GWH * (1 - 0.2% Module Degradation Loss) * (1 - 0.54% Irradiance Level PV Loss) * (1 - 0.68% Temperature PV Loss) * (1.55% LID Loss) = 0.65891GWH loss
Could someone explain in greater depth how the loss diagram is calculating loss percentages?
