Solar photovoltaic utilization rate
CO 2 emission saving potential of a solar PV plant is the amount of CO 2 that can be saved by generating electricity from solar PV plant. The CO 2 factor in kg/kWh is the amount of CO 2 saving for every one kWh of energy produced. The CO 2 emission mitigation potential (avoided CO 2 in kg) of a solar PV plant is given by Eq.
