“…However, solar cells' electrical energy is strongly influenced by the intensity of sunlight received by the PV system. South Sumatra, which is on the equator, where the sun shines throughout the year, has the high potential to develop the solar power generator, as have been investigated by Sasmanto et al in [9], Junianto et al in [10], Dewi et al in [11], and Yudha et al in [12].…”

South Sumatra has an established state-own enterprise exploring the Quarry Open Pit Mine. This mining process leaves some abondance open field that has a high potential to install a PV system. The Government has undertaken an initial analysis of 200 hectares of ex-mining land for this purpose. This paper analyzes the potential for PV panels to be installed at PTBA Tanjung Enim Quarry Open Pit Mine. The location of the PV panel in the open pit Quarry for this analysis is at an altitude of +140 m above sea level. Meanwhile, the PTBA Tanah Putih Township housing site where the PV comparison panel is installed is located on the altitude of +100 m above sea level, and within 2.97 km from the mine. PV panels installed in Open Pit mines generate better electricity and efficiency compared to PV panels installed outside the mine (in PTBA Township Housing). The difference of Isc between PV Panel installed in Quarry Open Pit Mine and Township is 0.0075 A. The Iload measured on the Quarry Open Pit Mine PV panel is 0.5478 A higher than the Township PV panel. Meanwhile, Voc measured on Quarry Open Pit Mine PV panel is smaller than Township PV panel, approximately 0.266 V and Vload of Quarry Open Pit Mine PV panel is 0.266 V larger than Township PV panel. The produced power of Quarry Open Pit Mine PV panel is 11.02 W larger than the Township PV panel. From the total value, the average efficiency produced by Quarry Open Pit Mine PV panels is 2.31 % higher than the efficiency produced by Township PV panels. This research shows the possibility and advantage of installing a PV system on a Quarry Open Pit Mine.

Renewable energy promises a better future for humankind and more flexible to be installed in a remote area such as a fisher village. The installation of PV panels by the seashore is prone to sea salt soiling. The unfortunate downside of solar energy is that it is highly affected by environmental changes. Therefore, the effect of sea salt deposition in time can reduce the installed PV panel's electrical performance. This paper presents the effect of sea salt soiling on PV panel performances during the rainy season and floated PV panel above a water body of an estuary to investigate the effect of sea salt soiling. The soiling PV panel simulation with sea salt resulting in a 2.09 W difference of the produced power from normal and sea salt soiling settings. A floating experiment is conducted for 29 days, and the electrical properties were measured on the last day. Even though the sea salt soiling can reduce PV panel performance, the benefit of PV panel application is significant, such as by installing a PV panel on a fisher boat, it can supply the electricity when the fisher goes fishing far to the sea.

“…Hence, the PV based power source is used in a wide range of applications that include residential and commercial building, drones, vehicle, satellites, embedded systems, sensors and many others [9]. The PV-based power source is not ideal and performance can cause many anomalies [10,11]. One of the most significant issues that affect PV modules performance is the shading caused due to clouds, physical objects, and living beings [10,11].…”

A Photovoltaic (PV) cell is a device that converts sunlight or incident light into direct current (DC) based electricity. Among other forms of renewable energy, PV-based power sources are considered a cleaner form of energy generation. Due to lower prices and increased efficiency, they have become much more popular than any other renewable energy source. In a PV module, PV cells are connected in a series and parallel configuration, depending on the voltage and current rating, respectively. Hence, PV modules tend to have a fixed topology. However, in the case of partial shading, mismatching or failure of a single PV cell can lead to many anomalies in a PV module’s functioning. If proper attention is not given, it can lead to the forward biasing of healthy PV cells in the module, causing them to consume the electricity instead of producing it, hence reducing the PV module’s overall efficiency. Hence, to further the PV module research, it is essential to have an approximate way to model them. Doing so allows for understanding the design’s pros and cons before deploying the PV module-based power system in the field. In the last decade, many mathematical models for PV cell simulation and modeling techniques have been proposed. The most popular among all the techniques are diode based PV modeling. In this book chapter, the author will present a double diode based PV cell modeling. Later, the PV module modeling will be presented using these techniques that incorporate mismatch, partial shading, and open/short fault. The partial shading and mismatch are reduced by incorporating a bypass diode along with a group of four PV cells. The mathematical model for showing the effectiveness of bypass diode with PV cells in reducing partial shading effect will also be presented. Additionally, in recent times besides fixed topology of series–parallel, Total Cross-Tied (TCT), Bridge Link (BL), and Honey-Comb (H-C) have shown a better capability in dealing with partial shading and mismatch. The book chapter will also cover PV module modeling using TCT, BL, and H-C in detail.
