Vidnovluvana energetika| Summary: | Producing electricity from solar energy is becomingmore popular in Ukraine, as the cost of photovoltaic (PV) modulesare rapid decreases making it more competitive comparedwith electricity, which produced from non-renewable sources ofenergy. In some developed countries, the cost of electricity generatedby solar PV plant is equal to or less than the cost of electricityfrom non-renewable sources of energy.In the not electrifiedareas, solar energy becoming an alternative source of energy.Each PV module consists of several photovoltaic cells,which consist of a matrix of solar cells that convert solar energyinto electricity. Failure of any PV module can lead to a drop in thepower of PV system, which reduces the power generation.Electrical tests of each PV module on large PV plants whichinclude thousands of PV modules is a time-consuming process.Thermography is the most effective method to identify and controlof defective PV modules. |
