Abstract :
The research paper presents the results of testing PV module efficiency on-board of a ship, in voyage and stationary, during one month. For future developments, in the field of PV energy used in naval domain, a starting point could be the real PV module testing results. The experiment assumes a data acquisition system from LabView - National Instruments and a 10W mono-crystalline PV panel, installed on-board of ship "NS Mircea". The data base obtained is also processed by LabView.
