One of a solar engineer’s tasks is to determine the efficiency of a solar panel system. A first step in determining solar system efficiency is a review of solar panel system technology. A PV panel ...

A group of scientists led by the R&D center of Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) has developed a new methodology to conduct on-site I-V curve measurements in PV systems. “It is common ...

Developed by scientists in India, the global maximum power point (GMPP) technique is based on the voltage and current of strings in a PV array. The research group tested it in computer simulation, as ...

Imagine that you have a voltage source in series with some source resistance feeding power to a variable load. The relationship between load voltage, load current, and cell current can be drawn as ...
