In this paper, we analyze the Transition of Isc by natural solar spectrum of c-Si and a-Si PV module. Commonly, performance of photovoltaic (PV) module is estimated under the standard test condition (STC). That is, solar irradiance $1kW/m^2$, solar spectrum distribution: AM1 5G, module temperature $25^{\circ}C$ This means it rarely meets actual outdoor conditions. The solar spectrum always changes. So it is rare to fit the standard solar spectrum AM1 5G defined in ASTM G173-03 or IEC 60904-3. Thus spectral response of PV module is different depending on the material. so we estimated the variation of Isc at every minutes by comparing c-Si PV module with a-si PV module for outdoor conditions.

This study evaluated the influence of temperature on the PV module surface on power output characteristics, especially for an amorphous transparent thin-film PV module which was applied to a full-scale mock-up model as building integrated photovoltaic system. The tested mock-up consisted of various slopes of PV module, facing to the south. The annual average temperature of the module installed with the slope of $30^{\circ}$ revealed $43.1^{\circ}C$, resulting in $7^{\circ}C$ higher than that measured in PV modules with the slope of $0^{\circ}$and $90^{\circ}$ did. This $30^{\circ}$ inclined PV module also showed the highest power output of 28.5W (measured at 2 PM) than other two modules having the power output of 20.4W and 14.9W in the same time for $0^{\circ}$ and $90^{\circ}$ in the slope, respectively. In case of the $30^{\circ}$ inclined PV module, it exhibited very uniform distribution of power output generation even under the higher temperature on the module surface. Consequently, the surface temperature of the PV module analyzed in this study resulted in 0.22% reduction in power output in every $1^{\circ}C$ increase of the module surface temperature.
