Temperature effect in the energy degradation of photovoltaic power system

Abstract

The modelling of output power for the photovoltaic system is essential for system design and local resource prediction. Accurate photovoltaic power modelling the foremost vital issue is systems efficiency analysis. The temperature plays the main role in the energy degradation of the photovoltaic systems, especially in the host sites. In this paper, experimental and theoreti-cal investigation into the photovoltaic module energy degradation due to temperature effects. This work objectives to investigate the photovoltaic power generated due to the ambient tem-perature effect. The presented results show that the ambient temperature has positive effects on the photovoltaic module energy production during the winter period and negative effects during the summer period. For the proposed photovoltaic system with a capacity of 2.97 kWp the expected theoretical annual energy production by about 554.01 kWh while the annual experiment production was l493.73 kWh. The novelty of the work is to estimate the energy losses due to the ambient temperature effect on the photovoltaic energy production.
