Abstract
When cloud shadows move across a photovoltaic (PV) array, the arrayâs
power output is reduced. It resumes full production when the shadow
moves away. The utility must follow these changes with other types
of generation. Under certain cloud conditions, the changes can be
large and fast. A methodology is presented to assess the cost of
such fluctuations and their effect on a utilityâs ability to serve
its load. A case study is also presented.
