A geometric approach for PV modules degradation

Bechara Nehme, N.K. M’Sirdi, Tilda Akiki

Open publisher page 3 citations

Abstract

This paper presents an overview of two degradation modes of PV panels: the Moisture Induced Degradation and the Cell Cracks. The two mentioned degradation modes affect PV cells differently according to their position in the module. At a previous stage, we have build a PV model that takes into consideration three degradation modes, the Potential Induced Degradation, the Light Induced Degradation, and the Ultraviolet Light Degradation. In this paper, we update our model to take into consideration all degradation modes.
