A preliminary study of the degradation of large-scale c-Si photovoltaic system under four years of operation in semi-arid climates

摘要

We report the preliminary results of the degradation study of large-scale photovoltaic (PV) system installed using 1006.74?kWp crystalline silicon (c-Si) PV array. A linear least square (LLS) fitting method is adopted, and the degradation rate (DR) is calculated for the four years based on monitored operational data in semi-arid climates of India.
