East-West Solar Power Plants
Therefore, in order to ensure acceptable power generation at the inverter output, more panels are installed, if space permits, so that the rated DC power is greater than the rated AC power. This ratio is called the DC/AC ratio, and typically economically viable values of this ratio are between 1.2 and 1.3.
