Abstract :
In the future, solar power will have an important role to play as an energy source along with a necessity for efficient use of photovoltaic panels (PVPs). The degradation of PVPs is a critical issue as it drops the efficiency of panels. Consumers, however, have difficulties in noticing the degradation of PVPs. Therefore, we propose a system in which the degradation of PVPs can be diagnosed and information is monitored via mobile devices. Through this system, not only can we notice the degradation of PVPs in a simple way, but also we can obtain information on the maintenance of PVPs.
