DC Oversizing Sample Clauses
The DC Oversizing clause defines the permissible extent to which the direct current (DC) capacity of a solar photovoltaic system can exceed the alternating current (AC) inverter capacity. In practice, this clause sets a maximum ratio or percentage by which the total installed DC module capacity may surpass the inverter’s rated output, often to optimize energy yield during periods of lower sunlight. Its core function is to ensure system design efficiency while preventing excessive oversizing that could lead to equipment stress or regulatory non-compliance.
DC Oversizing. 7.3.1 Any DC oversizing of the Project shall be the commercial decision of the SPV to optimize the power output from the Project. Notwithstanding the above, the SPV shall not be permitted to add any DC Capacity in any Unit after the Commercial Operation Date for such Unit has been achieved. Any addition of such DC Capacity shall be at sole risk and cost of the SPV without any recourse to MSEDCL.
7.3.2 However, for the purpose of compensation towards Change in Law, if any, the DC installed capacity shall be considered as the lower of the actual installed DC Capacity or the following formula: DC Capacity for Change in Law = AC Contracted Capacity x (declared CUF / minimum CUF stipulated in RfS)
