Abstract (EN): In this work, the evaluation of the performance of a small-size photovoltaic plant, with 15 kWp of capacity, is made and some proposals for its optimization are presented. The plant consists of a grid-connected centralized system, where the output power is consumed in the same building. The PV plant production data of the last couple of years are analysed, filtering the periods of inoperation. To obtain an accurate prediction of the efficiency and power output, the characteristics of all plant components were introduced in SAM software. The results obtained through the simulations and the measured output power values were compared.
