Hydrophobic (contact angle> 90°) anti-soiling coating (ASC) is a cost-effective mitigation strategy to reduce soiling. In this paper, we compared the cleaning efficacy of 4 different commercial hydrophobic anti-soiling coatings (on solar glass and PV modules) with a not-coated sample. All coated glass samples (A, B, C and D) showed higher cleaning efficacy (lower soiling loss) than the not-coated glass sample after cleaning with a 45 µl deionized water droplet. This was also confirmed by field exposure study done on PV modules (for coating B,C and D). Cleaning efficacy of the coating D (on PV module) decreased significantly after 2nd manual cleaning run, indicating abrasion caused by the cleaning tool, implying that the selection of cleaning methods/tools is critical. Under controlled environment (on solar glass) cleaning efficacy of all coated glass samples reduced by a factor of 6 (average) as the rolling water droplet travels from top to bottom, covering a total distance of 3.6 cm, This is due to the reduction in speed of the water droplet rolling off the surface as it accumulates more dust. Roll of angle for clean coated glass increases by a factor of 2 (for coating A,C and D) when measured on dust deposited glass substrate, indicating that roll-off angle depends on the surface of the ASC coatings, which may vary with exposure time and environmental conditions like soiling rate. Ranking of cleaning efficacy of ASC under field exposure correlated well with the roll-off angle measured on soiled samples in controlled experiments. This suggest roll - off angle as an important measure for the evaluation of the anti-soiling coatings.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0105-0108"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78868014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This analysis focused on assessing the value of PCA for improving the classification accuracy of failures within current-voltage (IV) traces. Our results show that combining PCA with random forests improves classification by only ∼1% (bringing the accuracy to >99%), compared to a baseline of only random forests (without PCA) of >98%. The inclusion of PCA, however, does provide an opportunity to study an interesting representation of all of the features on a single, two-dimensional feature space. A visualization of the first two principal components (similar to IV profile but rotated) captures how the inclusion of a current differential feature causes a notable separation between failure modes due to their effect on the slope. This work continues the discussion of generating different ways of extracting information from the IV curve, which can help with failure classification - especially for failures that only exhibit marginal profile changes in IV curves.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0798-0802"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87830239","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the presence of water, the interfaces between encapsulant and the cell, glass, and backsheet all experience losses of adhesion, exposing the module to accelerated degradation. Understanding the relation between interfacial adhesion and water content inside PV modules can help mitigate detrimental power losses. Water content measurements via short wave infrared reflectometry combined with 180° peel tests were used to study peel test samples exposed to damp heat and dry heat conditions. The effect of temperature, cumulative water dose, and water content during peel tests on interfacial adhesion was studied. Temperature and time decreased adhesion at all interfaces, whereas water content at time of measurement showed significant decreases in strength for the backsheet/encapsulant interface. Water dose showed little effect for the glass/encapsulant and backsheet/encapsulant interfaces, but there was significant adhesion loss with water dose at the front cell busbar/encapsulant interface.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"15 1","pages":"2057-2061"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87834702","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study we demonstrate a naive model combination method of global clear sky models for improved estimation of GHIcs. To be specific, 10 best performing beam and diffuse clear sky models are each selected from pervious study [1] and are paired to create 97 combinations of global clear-sky models. By including 18 standalone global clear sky models (distinguish from individual beam and diffuse combined models), this study compares 115 global clear sky models under 100 worldwide solar measurement ground stations. After rigorous data quality control and clear sky detection, 18.7 million 1-min time data points (between 2015-01-01 and 2019-09-30) are used to evaluate all 115 models. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) ranking procedure is then employed to aggregate 12 error metrics and provides the overall ranking scores. The top 3 world-wide performing global clear-sky models are MMAC-v1_IQBAL-C, MMAC-v2_PSIREST and REST2-v5, i.e., not the combination of the best beam and diffuse models. Such results may be due to the over- or under- estimation of different beam and diffuse models. Another interesting finding is the REST2-v5 model which was also listed in the top 10 global clear sky models in previous study. In all, most combined models achieve greater performance (higher PCA ranking scores) than the original ones.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0724-0728"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87112964","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, different silver (Ag) treatment processes are employed to improve the CIGS film quality after three-stage deposition process. We find that the grain size and crystallinity of CIGS films are considerably enhanced by increasing the deposition temperature and annealing time. The growth mechanisms of Ag treatment process could be visually displayed by the new reaction models of Ag treatment process. According to the XRD results, we have demonstrated that the element Ag contributes to the (112) preferred orientation of the absorber layer, which has the lower surface energy compared with (220)/(204) preferred orientation of CIGS film. With appropriate Ag-treated process, both electrical and optical properties of device are enhanced. And the best Ag-treated CIGS solar cell with the conversion efficiency of about 17.1% has a relative increase of about 11.8% in contrast with that of the reference CIGS solar cell.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"81 1 1","pages":"2667-2670"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87996627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An optimization is considered to address the existing trade-off between cost of losses due to the voltage drop and its investment cost. The main outcome of the model is the optimal DC cable capacity for a given PV system, as well as the relevant optimal DC cable sizing with respect to voltage drop. An experimental result of 250 kW Solar PV system installed at a latitude of 23.029° N and longitude of 72.577°E is used to determine the effect of temperature rise on voltage drop of dc cable at outdoor conditions. This paper presents an empirical model to determine the effect of voltage drop by temperature through experimental data. In this work a focus is made on th effect of temperature on DC cable and its solution towards performance guarantee as well as improvement in generation forecasting. This study is carried out to find on site dc voltage prediction with minimum error and provides prediction based on empirical formula. The model results reveal that, by installing the dc cable in outdoor conditions of semi-arid places like Gujarat, and other arid regions, where average ambient temperature is about 30°C- 35°C and in summer maximum is above 40°C and there is an increment in voltage drop of about 12 to 18 % with respect to standard test condition. By choosing the proper cable size we can save 2400 kWh to 5400 kWh annually which reduces annually 1200kg to 3000 Kg Co2 and 300Kg to 700 Kg coal could be prevented annually. With optimal design of DC cable we can reduced the cable loss below 1 % which is at par and it generates 1.8 to 2.4 times more revenue.","PeriodicalId":6773,"journal":{"name":"2020 47th IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC)","volume":"116 1","pages":"2397-2402"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86077888","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
