  • This study is focused on the improving effectiveness of a photovoltaic system. The characteristic of crystalline silicon solar cells, that 0.5% reduction in generating power is occurred by increasing temperature $1^{\circ}C$ of module. Typically, average solar generating power is higher spring and fall than summer. Degradation phenomena shall shorten the life of the module when the temperature of modules is $70^{\circ}C$. Decreasing temperature 40degree of the module and increasing the solar power 20% was presented using the water impinging jet method on the surface of photovoltaic cells. It is shown that Impinging jet have an effected on heat and deliver effective substance from the area in which the injection is effective.

  • The efficiency of solar cell was about 4[%] in initial stage of photovoltaic industry, but it has quite a lot of efficiency through technology advances. Today, the efficiency of c-Si solar cells is about 17 to 19[%] and the efficiency of PV modules is about 14 to 15 [%]. We called that electrical losses occurred in the Conversion of solar cells to PV modules are CTM loss(Cell To Module loss), the CTM loss typically has a value of about3~5[%]. The more efficiency of solar cell increase, differences are larger because the efficiency decrease owing to physical or technical problems occurred in the Conversion of solar cells to PV modules. In this study, the power loss factors occurred in the Conversion of solar cells to PV modules are analyzed and it is proposed that how to reduce losses of the PV module. The types of power loss factor are (1)losses of front glass and encapsulant(generally EVA sheet), (2)losses by sorting miss, (3)losses by interconnection, (4)losses by the field aging of PV modules. In further study, experimental and evaluation will be conducted to make demonstrate for proposed solutions.

  • The objects of PV (Photovoltaic) monitoring system is to reduce the loss of system and operation and maintenance costs. In case of PV plants with configured of centralized inverter type, only 1 PV module might be caused a large loss in the PV plant. For this reason, the monitoring technology of PV module-level that find out the location of the fault module and reduce the system losses is interested. In this paper, a fault diagnosis algorithm are proposed using thermal and electrical characteristics of PV modules under failure. In addition, the monitoring system applied with proposed algorithm was constructed. The wireless sensor using LoRa chip was designed to be able to connect with IoT device in the future. The characteristics of PV module by shading is not failure but it is treated as a temporary failure. In the monitoring system, it is possible to diagnose whether or not failure of bypass diode inside the junction box. The fault diagnosis algorithm are developed on considering a situation such as communication error of wireless sensor and empirical performance evaluation are currently conducting.

  • In our study, we collected data from a 100 kW floating photovoltaic (PV) system installed in Gyeongnam Hapcheon Dam and observed correlations between the power generation of the floating PV system and the irradiance, water temperature, humidity, ambient temperature, wind speed, and module temperature. Firstly, there was little correlation between the water temperature and power generation. Secondly, the ambient temperature, wind speed, and humidity all showed greater correlations with power generation. Finally, the power generation was very highly correlated with the irradiance and module temperature. In conclusion, the power generation of the floating PV system is related individually to environmental factors.

  • The performance of PV module applying the photovoltaic effects of the semiconductor is affected by temperature. Until now, most of PV module show that the power and efficiency falls at a rate of ${\sim}0.5%/^{\circ}C$ and ${\sim}0.05%/^{\circ}C$ respectively as increase of ambient temperature. In this study, the effect of fins attached to the backside of PV module was investigated through a thermal analysis program and simulation model. The result shows that the inner temperature of PV module with fin falls about $10^{\circ}C$ compare to that of ordinary PV module.

  • PV(Photovoltaic) system is environmentally friendly power system using solar energy in renewable energy. PV system compared to other renewable energy power generation systems is relatively easy to install, so the dissemination is increasing worldwide. Especially, BIPV(Building Integrated Photovoltaic) is a system that PV modules are installed on the building and use renewable energy. But this system is difficult to apply due to the shadow of adjacent buildings and limited installation. In this study, payback period is calculated by Retscreen 2010, that is an economic assessment software of renewable energy, on applied to the bridge of PV system. As results, this study aims at actively considering the application.
