Compared with monofacial photovoltaics, bifacial photovoltaic modules can
absorb the irradiance on both sides, thereby obtaining more electricity
revenue, which can meet more demands. In order to further improve the
electrical efficiency of bifacial photovoltaics, this paper proposes a
bifacial photovoltaic module with adjustable inclination for simulation and
experimental research, which can be well combined with architecture. Under
the conditions of different inclination, orientations and heights, the
output performance of the bifacial photovoltaic module is analyzed. Under
the best inclination, the annual electrical energy of bifacial photovoltaic
is about 9.4% higher than that of monofacial photovoltaics. When the spacing
between the bifacial photovoltaic and the wall is 1-1.5 times the size of
the photovoltaic, the electrical energy will increase the most. Considering
the influence of wall color on bifacial photovoltaic performance, the
photovoltaic electrical energy under the white wall can reach up to 35%
higher than that with respect to the concrete color (dark grey).
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
