Coating India’s Rooftops with Solar Photovoltaics
It is a known fact that India is a rarest of the countries rich with sunlight radiation and offers the best hope to revolutionise solar energy in the world. It receives about 5,000 trillion kWh of radiation annually. For every square kilometre 50 MW of solar power can be commissioned that can yield average annually 42.5 GWh of electricity assuming present PV cell efficiency of 15%. - Jaideep N Malaviya
Effect of Environmental Conditions on Performance of Solar Panels
This article shows a study of environmental defects generally occur in solar panels with their visualization methods. Some open environmental defects are visible by naked eye can be identified by by visual inspection. The effect of shading is one of the important factor considered in the condition monitoring of solar panels. The shading of tree on solar panels increase the temperature of solar panel surface, which is not visible in the photographs captured by normal camera. Such heat effects can be detected by thermal imaging camera easily.
