Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems are playing a major role in the present electrical energy
systems. The solar PV gives nonlinear I–V and P–V characteristics. As a result, it is difficult to …

Featured Application The paper proposes a new utility-scale photovoltaic plant maintenance
method to evaluate the degradation of photovoltaic panels. The method takes advantage of …

Photovoltaic panels can be affected by partial shading, which causes some shaded cells to
consume the energy generated by other cells of the panel. That is, shaded cells stop …

Several maximum power point tracking (MPPT) strategies have been developed to enhance
PV cell design parameters to maximize efficiency. Thus far, all MPPT methods used are …

In this paper, the estimation of solar cell parameters in the Bishop model was developed.
The parameter estimation was formulated as an optimization problem. Several techniques …

The hardware in the loop (HIL) technique allows you to reproduce the behavior of a dynamic
system or part of it in real time. This quality makes HIL a useful tool in the controller …

Photovoltaic (PV) systems face challenges in achieving maximum energy extraction due to
the non-linear nature of their current versus voltage (I x V) characteristics, which are …

This article presents the creation of bathymetric cartography for San Andrés, Providencia,
Santa Catalina, and the Colombian Caribbean to find suitable areas for implementing an …

In this decade, electric car technology has advanced at a breakneck pace. People are also
using electric vehicles more since they are more inexpensive. Electric car charging is one of …
