Output power analysis of low concentrated solar cells with fresnel lens optics

In this work, we introduce a П-shaped LCPV which works with a simple single-axis solar tracking system. The simulation of the П-shaped LCPV was made on COMSOL Multiphysics and output power of the LCPV was modeled and compared with other PV, LCPV systems using predicted optical efficiency at different incidence angles by regression methods such as XGBoost regression, Linear Regression, Support Vector Regression, Decision Tree Regression, Random Forest Regression. The most effective one was XGBoost regression with accuracy of 91.23931 %. The П-shaped LCPV generates 2.2 times more energy than the fixed nine-solar cell panel per a day. Using nine solar cells and the designed optics allows the system to operate well at wider incidence angles using a single-axis solar tracking system which rotates the system only 4 times a day. The П-shaped LCPV is less complex and cheaper than an ordinary Fresnel lens-based LCPV.
