THE ELECTRICAL PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF a-Si:H MODULES

[摘要] The electrical analysis of single junction amorphous silicon solar modules is carried outusing outdoor monitoring technique. Like crystalline silicon PV modules, the electricalcharacterisation and performance of single junction amorphous silicon modules is bestdescribed by its current-voltage (IV) characteristic. However, IV curve has directdependence on the type of PV technology and material properties used. Analysis revealsdiscrepancies in the modules performance parameter even though they are of similartechnology. The aim of this work is to compare the electrical performance output of eachmodules, using electrical parameters with the aid of PVPM 100040C IV tracer. Theseresults demonstrated the relevance of standardising the performance parameter foreffective degradation analysis in a-Si:H.
