Researchers in Spain have developed a new method to estimated potential-induced degradation (PID) in solar modules used in PV-driven water pumping systems. The proposed approach can detect PID from ...

Scientists in Indonesia have investigated early operational defects in a 24.9 MW solar PV system in Sumatra and have identified hotspot formation as the dominant defect. They also detected 282 cases ...

Is maximizing power per string the only right answer? If we imagine the development of the photovoltaic (PV) industry in terms of both scale and quality as a single curve, then from the first ...

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 ...
