Özet: In this article, real-time monitoring, control and operation of the power generation of Şenyurt (Erzurum/Turkey) Solar Power Plant (SPP) with a three-phase central inverter topology is discussed. In the study, firstly, the power generation model of Şenyurt SPP with direct grid feed and central inverter topology was examined. Secondly, the data obtained by means of solar radiation sensor, Photovoltaic (PV) panel temperature sensor, outdoor temperature sensor and wind speed sensor, which are vital for monitoring and controlling the power generation of SPP, were evaluated. Real-time data obtained from these sensors were obtained with the help of a remote monitoring interface compatible with the Central Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system in the SPP. With the data of the sensors, the graphs obtained regarding the change of one-day active power generation of the SPP are interpreted. Thus, the operational inspection of the SPP for uninterrupted active power generation was carried out. Finally, practical field applications such as cleaning the snow accumulated on the PV panel surface, detection of hot zone faults in PV panels, measurement of current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of PV panel arrays, which are necessary for efficient power generation in the solar power plant, are also included.
