PV revenue distribution refers to the distribution of power generation revenue to relevant stakeholders in accordance with certain rules during the operation of PV power plants. When distributing PV revenues, there are 4 aspects that need to be considered:
1.Earnings calculation method
First, determine the basic parameters of the photovoltaic power station, such as power generation, feed-in tariff and subsidy policyThen, the power generation revenue is calculated according to the ratio of power generation and on-grid electricity, and then the net income is deducted after deducting the on-grid cost (including equipment depreciation, operation and maintenance expenses, etc.).
2.Principle of income distribution
The distribution of PV revenue should follow the principle of fairness and justice, taking into account the rights and interests of different participants. In general, the following methods can be used to distribute revenues:
Direct distribution to plant owners or investors: The most common method is to distribute the proceeds directly to the plant owners or investors in proportion to the amount invested. The advantage of this approach is that it is simple and easy, but it may lead to excessive returns for some investors to the detriment of other participants.
Allocation**: As a defender of public interests, it can guide the development of the photovoltaic industry by formulating relevant policies and regulations, and at the same time, it can also support the development of the photovoltaic industry through subsidies and other means. Therefore, a portion of PV revenues can be allocated to ** to encourage and promote the use and development of renewable energy.
Allocated to the power grid company: The power grid company is responsible for the trading and management of photovoltaic power stations in the electricity market, and its income is mainly based on the income from the sale of electricity. Therefore, a part of the PV revenue can be allocated to the grid company to ensure its normal operation and sustainable development in the electricity market.
3.Other Participants
In addition to the above-mentioned participants, there are a number of other players involved in the sharing of PV revenues. For example, the construction unit, design unit, supervision unit, etc., as well as the operation and maintenance service provider of the photovoltaic project, may be involved in the distribution of revenue. The distribution of the proceeds of these participants can be determined on a case-by-case basis, and can be distributed separately in addition to the direct distribution to the plant owner or investor.
4.PV revenue management
In order to better manage and supervise the distribution and use of PV revenues, corresponding revenue management is required. This includes the establishment of a sound financial system, regular audits and publicity, and strengthening supervision. At the same time, it is also necessary to establish an effective communication mechanism to resolve possible problems and disputes in a timely manner to ensure the balance and coordination of the interests of all parties.
In short, the distribution of photovoltaic revenue is a complex process, which needs to be distributed and managed in a scientific and reasonable way on the basis of full consideration of all factors in order to achieve the goal of win-win.
