An international research team has investigated the impact of wind-induced vibrations on solar modules and has found that wind-induced stress can have significant mechanical repercussions on PV arrays ...

The demonstrator model, based on Madrid urban conditions, is able to calculate yields but can also be used to evaluate alternative maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms. The team combined ...

The reliable performance of PV modules is heavily influenced by the climate conditions in deserts, which include factors such as irradiance, temperature, humidity and dust soiling. Image: DEWA R&D. A ...

Scientists and researchers at NREL, including Timothy Silverman and Elizabeth Palmiotti, are investigating early failure in dual-glass PV modules. Image: Agata Bogucka, NREL. Dual-glass PV modules are ...
