“…Other empirical and semi-empirical formulas that predict T pv and T pv (t) have been proposed and validated in a large diversity of PV configurations [11][12][13][14], while formulas based on artificial neural networks (ANNs) [15][16][17] predicted T pv for FPV installations studied for each case. T pv is a crucial factor that affects efficiency, η pv , and evidently the PV power output, P m , [18], while high T pv and humidity accelerate the PV cell's aging [19][20][21][22]. In the last decade, the study of the PV performance in lakes and reservoirs, nearshore and offshore, has been given special attention because of interest in floating PV (FPV) [23][24][25][26], with a focus on the effect of the environmental conditions, such as I T , wind speed, v w , ambient temperature, T a , seawater (s.w.)…”
