Photovoltaics cell behave in a unique way when light falls on it. The objective of this work is to evaluate the performance of photovoltaic system under different wavelengths from artificial light in a controlled environment. Measurements were first taken from the PV module in the absence of the filters, followed by each filter been placed individually and measurement taken correspondingly. From the results obtained the PV module was most efficient when the yellow colored filter was employed and least efficient with the blue filter (revealing a difference of 2% in efficiency between them). Nevertheless, the photovoltaic module surpassed the efficiencies reached with the application of the colored filters when left open to the natural spectrum.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
