Journal ArticleDOI

Experimental study of the dust effect on photovoltaic panels' energy yield

TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of dust on electrical and thermal behavior of photovoltaic panels is investigated, which leads to different panel behaviors in the thermal, optical and electrical aspects.
Journal ArticleDOI

A novel global MPPT technique based on squirrel search algorithm for PV module under partial shading conditions

TL;DR: The feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed ISSA based MPPT have been validated experimentally, and the results clearly demonstrate its capability in tracking the GMPP with an average efficiency of 99.48% and average tracking time of 0.66 s.
Journal ArticleDOI

Performance evaluation of metaheuristic techniques for optimal sizing of a stand-alone hybrid PV/wind/battery system

TL;DR: The SA has the best compromise between robustness, accuracy, and rapidity, and is found to be the best option to solve the sizing problem, and the FPA is the most advantageous in case the execution time is not crucial for the optimization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Technical and economic assessment of cleaning protocol for photovoltaic power plants: Case of Algerian Sahara sites

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focused on technical and economic analysis of cleaning protocol of photovoltaic panels in power plants as function of dust density translated into soiling level and showed that the accumulation of dusts on PV panels influences the conversion efficiency of PV modules.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reducing dust effects on photovoltaic panels by hydrophobic coating

TL;DR: In this article, a proposal to apply a nanocoating on photovoltaic panels in a simple and cost-effective way is examined, and the tested hydrophobic coating layer reduces these issues and solves the problems of dust and electrical losses.
