Abstract :
The use of photovoltaic solar power for communication and signalling systems continues to grow although not without some growing pains. There have been successes but also failures. This paper examines those considerations most important in helping users avoid some of the common pitfalls in the sizing, selection, and installation of photovoltaic (PV) power systems.
