Accelerated degradation of photovoltaic modules under a future warmer climate

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 32, Issue 7, Page 456-467, July 2024.
Overexposure of the PV modules in the outdoor conditions can lead to module degradation and failure. Considering climate change, we anticipate a significant alteration in future climatic conditions, impacting the lifetime of the modules. Modelling projects that future warmer climate will accelerate module degradation and elevate associated risks ...

A novel snow conditions‐compatible computational intelligence‐based PV power forecasting approach for microgrids in snow prone regions

IET Smart Grid, Volume 7, Issue 3, Page 221-240, June 2024.
In this study, a novel snow conditions‐compatible computational intelligence‐based short‐term PV power forecasting (PVPF) approach is proposed that is independent of exogenous weather forecasts. This approach is validated for a model predictive control (MPC)‐based energy management system (EMS) of a PV energy‐based grid‐connected microgrid located in a

Open‐source photovoltaic model pipeline validation against well‐characterized system data

Progress in Photovoltaics: Research and Applications, Volume 32, Issue 5, Page 291-303, May 2024.
All freely available plane‐of‐array transposition models and PV temperature and performance models in pvlib‐python and pvpltools‐python were examined against multiyear field data. Although differences can be observed at different times of the day/year, this study shows that the availability of system‐specific input data may be more important than PV ...

Impact of Climate Change on Photovoltaic Performance: Case Study in French Cities

Solar RRL, Volume 8, Issue 2, January 2024.
To address the effect of climate change on photovoltaic performance, a model chain is established to propagate climate projections and quantify the resulting yield losses. The investigated study cases in France highlight that the performance ratio decreases at most by 3% on the RCP 8.5 scenario mostly through module temperature losses and accelerated ...
