Near Shading: This is basically shading loss due to lesser inter row distances (pitch) of

two consecutive solar module rows, as per pvsyst this can further categorize into two
subcategories:

Irradiance losses: Due to lesser space, in between two consecutive rows some
amount of irradiance in the morning and evening will not collected by solar cells so termed
as irradiance loss formerly called "Linear shading losses”.

Electrical losses: How you form the strings on structures whether I or U, based on
that "according to string" minimal amount of loss present in the system.

Depend on the tilt of the structures this can be max up to 2.5%.

IAM factor on global: The incidence effect (the designated term is IAM,
for "Incidence Angle Modifier") corresponds to the decrease of the irradiance really
reaching the PV cells's surface, with respect to irradiance under normal incidence, due to
reflexions increasing with the incidence angle. This will be calculated by Pvsyst itself as this
is module dependent. Done many pvsyst simulation and found this shall not be more than
3%.

Soiling loss factor: We have no measurement device which can measure the
soil/dust/bird dropping at site, generally considered as max up to 2% but can be further
reduced up to 0.5% if we can reduce the time cycle for module cleaning.

PV loss due to irradiance level & PV loss due to temperature: Both the
losses are dependent on .PAN file of module manufacturer and also completely dependent
on the site meteo data, shall be calculated by pvsyst internal simulation.

Module quality loss: This loss refers positive and negative Wp tolerances of
modules. Following cases shall be considered while choosing solar modules:

1) If both tolerances are present means positive and negative(i.e+-5Wp) then this will add
loss in the system so that generation become less.

2) If only positive tolerances will be present then generation will be more so gain of max up
to +0.4%.

LID - Light induced degradation: LID occurs when oxygen impurities in the
silicon wafers react with the doped (p type) boron or gallium in the first few hours/weeks
of illumination of cell. The effect can reduce cell efficiency from 2 to 4% right of the bat.
Better to get the confirmation from module manufacturer for first year degradation of solar
modules so as to LID loss.
Module array mismatch loss: Mismatch losses are function of production
electrical uniformity and binning thereof. If module comes with bin class then surely this
will be less say 1% otherwise more if electrical characteristics(Current/Voltage) are
different in comparison with each other modules.

Ohmic wiring loss: As the name implies this loss is due to cables selection,
representing the loss on DC side in between module to inverter through DC cables. This
shall not be more than 2%@STC, superior solar designing while selecting right size of DC
cables can reduced further up to 1% depend on the shape of land and contract also.

Inverter Loss during operation: This loss completely dependent on the .OND file
of inverter manufacturer. While selecting inverters through efficiency we can know the loss
figure.

Auxiliary losses: As the name implies auxiliary means various loads are present in
solar plant which will take power for running at day time as well as night time. This loss
shall be in between 0.7% to 1% depend on the size of the plant.

System unavailability: During O&M contract this loss shall be finalized based on
mutual understanding in between client and O&M company, this loss shall be in between
0.5% to 1% depend on the size of the plant.

AC ohmic loss: Representing the loss on AC side in between inverter to evacuation

through AC cables. This shall not be more than 0.5% at full load.

External transfo loss: Basically this loss refers to inverter transformer loss, max
considered up to 1.1%.
