Ah, now I see it is solar power, so generation - so perhaps slightly longer hand: "Desired power generation from the installation", or similar

potencia instalacion deseada
desired installed capacity


Explanation:
Since your text is about solar power generation, there is an engineering concept called "potencia total instalada" or "installed capacity" for energy generation, which basically means the total capacity (in W) that the physical structure can generate.
In Spanish, "potencia instalada" appears in tables/mathematical formulas as "potencia instalación". "Deseada" refers to the "desired capacity" or, in your case, "desired installed capacity".

See this example from the solar plan from Castilla y Leon:
Energía Solar Fotovoltaica y Eólico-Fotovoltaica no conectada a red. El coste unitario del sistema tradicional se establece según la tabla anexa y el funcionamiento del grupo generador en 3.500 h/año. El coste del sistema tradicional se calculará, como el producto de la producción eléctrica anual de la instalación solar (en KWh./KW. -EPA-) por la potencia instalada de la instalación (en W.) y por el coste unitario del sistema tradicional (tabla adjunta), dividido por 3.500.000.
EPA * Potencia instalación solar (W)
CNISC = -----------------------------------------------------------------------

Check these passages from a comparative study (OECD Europe & the US) on the impact of cost and electricity production:
The desired capacity is only installed if a demand for replacement capacity exceeds these exogenous pathways.
With increasing installed capacity, on site wind turbine or solar PV module power generation costs will tend to increase as less favourable sites with lower wind speed or lower irradiance, lower load factors and/or higher additional transmission costs come into operation.
If the capacity has a technical lifetime of 25 years (see Table II), after 20 years a fraction (10%) of the installed capacity is replaced each year until 5 years after the technical lifetime.
For the remaining demand for capacity, i.e. the demand for replacement capacity minus the desired capacity for intermittent (plus back-up capacity) and hydro, market shares are given based on the relative generation costs in a multinomial logit formulation.
