Abstract:Photovoltaic solar technology is undergoing remarkable progress and occupies an important place among the most used renewable energies. In the present study, the influence of dust, wind and rain on the performance of a photovoltaic system operating in Arequipa - Peru was evaluated. To determine the efficiency of photovoltaic panels influenced by external factors, a photovoltaic system was designed and installed, voltage, electric current, solar irradiance and temperatures were measured. For the dirt tests, thr… Show more
