Correlating the switch-on time of two identical PV modules using a simplified measuring approach

Swart, Arthur James (IEEE Explore: Electrical Engineering/Electronics, Computer, Telecommunications and Information Technology (ECTI-CON), 2016 13th International Conference, 2016)

The installation of different renewable energy systems is gaining momentum globally, as governments and industry seek to reduce carbon emissions and fossil fuel usage. PV systems have become more common place, as evidenced ...
Detecting the presence of pigeons on PV modules in a pico-solar system

Hertzog, Pierre E; Swart, Arthur J (IEEE Xplore: IEEE Africon Proceedings, 2017)

Shading caused by the presence of pigeons can negatively affect the output power of a PV module in a pico-solar system. This is due to the fact that the body of the pigeon may interrupt the direct beam radiation received ...
Visualising the effect of different tilt angles on the switch-on time of small PV modules using a simplified measuring approach

Swart, Arthur James (IEEE Xplore: IEEE AFRICON, 2017)

Renewable energy systems are receiving more and more attention, as governments and industry seek to reduce fossil fuel usage and provide more clean energy. PV systems fall into this category, and are especially sought ...
