“…A iluminação das células pelo sol gera diferença de potencial que é captado pelos eletrodos que transmitem a corrente gerada a baterias, sendo, por fim, distribuída para consumo. A eficiência desse sistema depende do material constituinte das placas, sendo que o mais utilizado é o silício cristalino, cuja eficiência é de cerca de 25% (Hayat et al 2018;Xu et al, 2020).…”

O Brasil, tradicionalmente explora uma matriz energética geradora de baixo impacto nas mudanças climáticas. Todavia, as recentes crises energéticas sinalizaram a necessidade de diversificação desta matriz. Em vista disso, um dos objetivos do presente trabalho foi avaliar a possiblidade de utilização das fontes eólica e fotovoltaica para atender as necessidades de energia brasileiras. O segundo objetivo foi descrever e avaliar a relevância das iniciativas do Complexo Industrial de Furnas na busca por diversificação das fontes energéticas, na área eólica e fotovoltaica. A pesquisa foi empreendida entre os meses de abril e junho de 2022. Consistiu em uma revisão sistemática de literatura em que foram analisados trabalhos científicos e dados de agências oficiais brasileiras e estrangeiras, buscando informações que possibilitassem analisar quais eram e qual a relevância das iniciativas do Complexo Industrial de Furnas no que tange às modalidades energéticas eólica e fotovoltaica. Como resultados, foi possível averiguar que as necessidades energéticas brasileiras e mundiais são crescentes, mas que a energia eólica e a fotovoltaica são fontes promissoras para o suprimento desta demanda. Por fim, concluiu-se que o Complexo de Furnas já aderiu à nova tendência e possui iniciativas e perspectivas de expansão nas modalidades citadas. Assim, acredita-se que o Complexo já apresenta boas alternativas para a manutenção de baixa emissão de gases de efeito estufa e para a garantia da segurança e estabilidade da rede elétrica, com tendências de expansão.

“…conducted an experimental analysis of dust deposition on the photovoltaic modules surface. The researchers stated that the energy output can be increased by 0.947-0.971 through increasing temperature gradient near the module surface [54]. However, in other research the effect of thermophoresis under different temperatures has been investigated.…”

In this present era, solar modules have become a popular energy conducting element. Thus, Dhaka city is not behind in this sector as it can be seen in every building's rooftop containing PV modules. However, Dhaka city is so polluted and therefore it can be seen that PV modules become dusty quickly. It is a major concern in the Middle east and there is energy loss for this reason. The purpose of this study is to compare the output between two PV modules, where one is a dusty module and another is a clean module. Moreover, in this study how dust particles affect the module at different altitudes is another concern. Here the dust particles on the modules store heat from the sun and this affects the output, also affects the short circuit current when dust particles make shadows in the module. Two modules were checked properly in indoor conditions before conducting the outdoor experiment to know the condition of those and to get the PV graph. After that outdoor experiment was conducted on a regular basis to get the continuous data and finally the comparison graph shows the results and effects, how dust affects the module's power output. Empirical method was used to calculate the solar irradiance and finally, solar incident energy was calculated from that.

“…The deposition of dust on the PV modules is a function of several factors such as dust properties (weight, size, and shape), wind speed and direction, the tilt angle of the panel and the surface smoothness, and environmental factors (rain, humidity, dew, and dust storms). The causes of dust deposition on the PV modules and the effect of dust deposition on optical characteristics, electrical characteristics, and thermal characteristics of the PV module were discussed in references [17][18][19][20][21][22]. The effect of solar irradiation, dust deposition, and sand storm on the performance of crystalline modules installed in a Saharan environment was analyzed experimentally [23].…”

For a decade, investments in solar photovoltaic (PV) systems have been increasing exponentially in the Middle East. Broadly speaking, these investments have been facing tremendous challenges due to the harsh weather in this particular part of the world. Dust accumulation is one the challenges that negatively affects the performance of solar PV systems. The overall goal of this paper is to thoroughly investigate the effect of dust accumulation on the energy yield of car park PV systems. With this aim in mind, the paper presents scientific values for further research and opens the horizon for attracting further investments in solar PV systems. This study is based on a real PV system in the Sultanate of Oman and considers different cleaning cycles for 16 months (from 29 July 2018 to 10 November 2019). Furthermore, four different PV groups were assessed, and the system was monitored under different cleaning frequencies. In general, it was found that dust accumulation has a significant impact; under 29-day, 32-day, 72-day, and 98-day cleaning cycles, the average percentages of energy loss due to soiling were 9.5%, 18.2%, 31.13%, and 45.6%, respectively. In addition, the dust effect has a seasonal variation. The study revealed that dust accumulation has a more negative impact during summer than during winter. During summer, the energy losses due to soiling were 8.7% higher than those during winter. The difference was attributed to different environmental conditions, with high humidity and low wind speed being the main factors that worsen the impact of dust during summer. Based on the findings of this research, a monthly cleaning program is highly recommended in the city of Muscat.
