Abstract A 20 kW p Solar Photovoltaic (SPV) system was set up on the library roof-top in
Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore, India. This roof-top photovoltaic (RTPV) system partly …

Parallel to growing grid-integrated applications, the power converters have been an
important research field for the power conversion and power quality. The converters can be …

Renewable energy sources continue to attract attention in all parts of the world. Photovoltaic
solar energy plants rapidly grow and become prevalent. They are now used for large-scale …

Estimating the energy provided by the generators of grid-connected photovoltaic systems is
important in order to analyze their economic viability and supervise their operation. The …

Two complete years of operation of two grid-tied PV facilities is presented. Energetic and
economic performance of both installations has been compared. Located in the same place …

Lack of long-term global solar radiation data has often been a significant challenge to the
solar power sector development primarily in developing countries. The choice of a solar …

This paper proposes a simplified method to determine an index to quantify the influence of
partial shadings on the performance of BIPV systems based on the relation between the …

This is the second part of the paper “Simplified method for shading-loss analysis in BIPV
systems”. The objective of Part 2 is to apply the simplified method described in Part 1 in …

The fault detection applied to a large amount of small distributed PV systems needs to be
simple, cost-effective, and reliable. This work presents a fault detection procedure applied to …

Photovoltaic-based power generation is increasing in Bangladesh. With the high level of
availability and being cost-effective in contrast with off-gird plants, grid-connected solar …
