Effective-diode-based analysis of industrial solar photovoltaic panel by utilizing novel three-diode solar cell model...

Currently, the majority of the country has moved to renewable energy sources for electricity generation, and power companies are concentrating their efforts on renewable resources. Solar, wind, hydropower, and biomass are examples of renewable resources; of these, due to a lack of non-renewable resources, the solar industry is expanding. All year long, solar electricity is available, and it creates a calm, quiet atmosphere. The majority of large and small companies, as well as individual consumers, have shifted to PV solar cells for electricity generation. A trustworthy and precise simulation design of a photovoltaic system prior to installation is required to predict a photovoltaic system's performance. The current research aims to build models for solar PV systems with one, two, and three diodes and determine which model is most appropriate for each environmental circumstance to forecast performance accurately. By contrasting the experimental data of solar panel with simulated results of single-, double-, and triple-diode models, this study examines the accuracy of each model. These models' comparative performance study has been done using the MATLAB/Simulink, taking into account the influence of changing model parameters and the performance of the models under varying climatic circumstances. These models, despite their simplicity, are quite sensitive and react to even a little change in temperature and irradiance. Under conditions of low solar irradiance or shading conditions, three-diode photovoltaic models are shown to be more accurate. We can forecast the power output of solar photovoltaic systems under changeable input circumstances by understanding the I-V curves with the help of the performance assessment of the models used in this work.
