photovoltaics
method of converting solar radiation into direct current electricity
concentrated photovoltaics
technology which uses lenses to concentrate a larger area of solar energy onto a smaller photovoltaic surface
Photovoltaic module analysis techniques
Photovoltaic module analysis techniques are necessary for the inspection of photovoltaic modules, the detection of occurring degradation and the analysis of cell properties
building-integrated photovoltaics
Photovoltaic materials used to replace conventional building materials
Hot spot (photovoltaics)
In a photovoltaic module, a hot spot describes an over proportional heating of a single solar cell or a cell part compared to the surrounding cells.
solar module quality assurance
testing and evaluating of photovoltaics to ensure the required qualities are met
