Abstract :
This paper provides an analysis of the irradiance influence on photovoltaic cell efficiency in dependence on the cell construction, using the standard equivalent circuit describing solar cell. The influence of the series resistance is discussed in details and results of simulations are completed with experimental result obtained by measuring both crystalline silicon and CIS cells in broad intervals of irradiance and temperature.
