The P-Q capability curve for a solar inverter is typically provided by the solar inverter manufacturer. In some studies it is important to establish the P-Q capability of a solar farm (as measured at its point of connection), which has multiple inverters, transformers and cables etc. To get the solar farm P-Q curve, you must do successive power flow calculations, respecting the P-Q limits of the individual inverters in each calculation.
