Researchers have used the jellyfish search algorithm to optimize solar PV distributed generation placement and sizing. They have tested the algorithm on an IEEE 33-bus system, with one, two, or three ...

Scientists in India have developed a novel method to optimize the placement of an EV charging station on the grid, along with the size of its PV generation and battery storage. They have also created ...

The increasing integration of photovoltaic (PV) technology into the building envelope represents a significant stride in sustainable construction and urban energy management. Building-integrated ...

Maximising the performance of tracked bifacial PV requires optimisation of technical and financial factors. Image: Nextracker PV systems combining bifacial and tracker technologies deliver the ...

A team of researchers in Canada has developed the Jericho Open Resistive Data Logger—an open-access photovoltaic (PV) monitoring platform that integrates data acquisition and processing hardware, a ...

To achieve net-zero goals and accelerate the global energy transition, the International Energy Agency (IEA) stated that countries need to triple renewable energy capacity from that of 2022 by 2030, ...

Scientists and researchers at NREL, including Timothy Silverman and Elizabeth Palmiotti, are investigating early failure in dual-glass PV modules. Image: Agata Bogucka, NREL. Dual-glass PV modules are ...

Generating electricity with a photovoltaic system depends on many factors, but primarily on weather conditions and the position of the sun. In Germany, particularly large amounts of electricity are ...

A readily accessible disconnecting means is required to disconnect power from each photovoltaic (PV) system [690.13(A)(1)], as shown in Fig. 1. Fig. 1. A readily accessible disconnecting means is ...

What is the PV-Pushback-Effect? How can solar day lamps (SDLs) take advantage of this effect? Solar day lamps (SDLs) are made by simply connecting an LED array to a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel. SDLs ...
