Abstract
To meet the energy demand, solar photovoltaic has already emerged as a convincing renewable energy technology. Solar Photovoltaic (PV) modules are one of the most effective, sustainable, and eco-friendly systems in recent world. Different types of PV solar technologies like Mono crystalline silicon, poly crystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, thin film are the most popular technologies to produce electricity. Their module performance and efficiency depend on the electrical and environment parameters of the PV materials. This paper presents some theoretical evaluations for variation in the efficiency of energy for different types of photovoltaic (PV) module under changes of environmental parameters. A proper comparison is developed among the mono-crystalline, polycrystalline and amorphous material using the model parameters. This work also illustrates the variation of fill factor and efficiency of a specific photovoltaic module under real operating conditions. MATLAB is used to investigate the P-V characteristics to evaluate the maximum power point of solar photovoltaic cell considering the effect of temperature and solar radiation.
