Renewable energy sources (RES) have been extensively deployed as green energy producers for reducing power consumption while diminishing greenhouse emissions. Nowadays, Morocco focuses on RES, especially solar energy due to its abundance, in order to reduce its dependence on fossil products (e.g., coal, oil, gas). The aim of the work presented in this article is the modeling, the simulation, the experimentation and the assessment of the performance of a 2.040 kWp grid-connected photovoltaic (PV) system. It is based on polycrystalline silicon technology (pc-Si) and installed on the flat roof of the Physics department building of the Faculty of Sciences El Jadida (Latitude 33.22°N, Longitude 8.48°W, Altitude 24 m, and 2.1 km away from the Atlantic Ocean) in Morocco. Thus, the daily and monthly characteristics of the PV system (e.g., power, voltage, current) have been measured, monitored, and analyzed during three years (January 2015-December 2017). Besides, several simulations and experiments have been carried out and the results have been reported and showed that the simulation gives a good approximation of the real-world scenarios. Therefore, the monthly average of the produced energy, the efficiency, the final and the reference yields (YF and YR), the performance ratio (PR), and the annual capacity factor (CF) of the PV system have been computed, presented and evaluated in order to assess its performance. For our pc-Si PV system, the average annual values of the produced energy, the PR and the CF are 1830 kWh/kWp, 79% and 0.21 respectively.<
