DC/AC ratio: How to choose the right size solar inverter?
A 7% discount rate. First of all, we have performed 10 batch designs with a range of DC/AC ratio from 1.05 to 1.5 in 0.05 spacing. Among the 10 designs, those with DC/AC ratio between 1.15 and 1.20 have reached a lower LCOE and are very close to 49.3 €/MWh. The design with the lowest DC/AC ratio (1.05) has a lower CAPEX.

Then you take the energy output and divide it by the energy input. This is your energy efficiency ratio. You can multiply it by 100 to express it as a percentage. Example: An older piece of equipment receives 500 joules of power to produce the equivalent of 100 joules of output. 100/500 = 0.2, or 20% efficiency.
