Temperature characteristics of an InGaP/InGaAs/Ge triple-junction solar cell were analyzed in detail using an equivalent circuit calculation. The currentvoltage (I-V) characteristics of single-junction solar cells (InGaP, InGaAs, Ge solar cells) were measured at various temperatures. Fitting of I-V curves between measured and calculated data was carried out, and the diode parameters and temperature exponents of the single-junction solar cells were extracted. The parameters for each single-junction solar cell were used in the equivalent circuit model for the triple-junction solar cell, and calculations of solar cell performance were carried out. Measured and calculated results of the I-V characteristics at various temperatures agreed well.

“…It is necessary to know the output characteristics of PV modules when they are applied for building. Many workers have evaluated various standard output models of silicon solar cells by an evaluation of the current density and voltage in the solar cell (Bashahu and Habyarimana, 1995;EL-Adwi and AI-Nuaim, 2002;Haouari-Merbah and Belhamel, 2005;Kaminski and Marehand, 1997;Kiran and Inan, 1999;Ouennoughi and Chegaar, 1999). Different environmental parameters have also been introduced to modify the standard models, which can be used to predict the output features of the solar cell in various environmental conditions (King et al, 1998(King et al, , http://dx.doi.org/10.1016(King et al, /j.solener.2015.036 0038-092X/Ó 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
