TLDR
In this article, the authors presented an analysis of solar energy potential and data with seasonal variation in region of Manavgat in Antalya, which has one of the highest solar potential in Europe Expectation in the region is simulated for every month and measurements taken from PV power system installed there are compared with simulated results in winter season.Abstract:
This study presents an analysis of solar energy potential and data with seasonal variation in region of Manavgat in Antalya, which has one of the highest solar energy potential in Europe Expectation in the region is simulated for every month and measurements taken from PV power system installed there are compared with simulated results in winter season Also, some actual harvested data from thin films and monocrystalline types are presented as a case study to evaluate the solar energy potential of the region, comparatively Besides, importance of the sun tracking system is emphasized by simulation studies via PV Geographical Information System (PVGIS) from point of increasing the yields in selected region Estimated results from two-axis tracking system are evaluated and compared with output of the fixed-angle PV systems installed there for both thin film and monocrystalline type PV panels Also, temperature effects on performance of the PV systems are reviewed briefly because of daily high temperature of the region In particular, it is observed that harvested solar energy from thin film type panels is close to the monocrystalline types, depending on the less effects of high ambient temperature on thin film PV panel's efficiency with respect to the monocrystalline type Specifically, despite the high solar energy potential, this PV power system installation is the first project in the region Thanks to this project it is evaluated that thin-film PV panels can be used in the region more favorable, which can be obtained cheaper than the othersread more
