Solar energy is the energy of the present and future. With the growing demand for power, it is likely that solar energy is going to be the only reliable energy source in the future. This adds to the collective responsibility of solar power plants to deliver power efficiently. As every method of energy conversion has its own limitations, so does this method exhibit its inefficiency to convert solar energy into electrical energy in the presence of cloud cover or in event of eclipses. This paper shall consider the effect of a solar eclipse on the power generation process of a solar power plant and propose a theory for the same. Initially, various types of eclipses shall be discussed for the need of acquaintance and understanding after which the effect of solar eclipse on the stability of the plant shall be understood. This work shall be restricted to qualitative analysis and shall intend to establish a theory of correlation between progression of eclipse and the stall and surge in power generation which shall then be linked to the stability of the power plant. As modern day technology can easily provide details of the next eclipse in line, necessary precautions and safety measures can surely be undertaken to avoid damage to power generation equipment. Towards the end, a procedure shall be proposed to validate the theory.
