Experimental setup for multiparametric characterization of photovoltaic panels

Photovoltaic panels (PVs) are growing in terms of development and utilization all over the world. Different manufacturers deliver photovoltaic panel characteristics according to the locations where they are tested. Since there are different technological materials used in the manufacturing of PVs, the present research represents an effective method of prediction of the energy produced by the photovoltaic systems and an acceptable method of their characterization by using an experimental setup. The prediction of the energy produced by a photovoltaic system is generally made through software which uses algorithms that describe the trend of the efficiency of the panels depending on the temperature, the radiation and, in more particular cases, depending on the incident spectrum features.
