“…This observation is also supported by the humidity scatter plot in Figure 3 which, despite including many outliers, still illustrates an inverse relationship between the humidity and the Instantaneous Power. This inverse relationship is the subject of discussion of multiple related research articles [23]- [25], which also confirm the observed behavior. In simple terms, the higher levels of humidity lead to the formation of water vapor on the surface of the solar cell which reflects and refracts the incoming sunlight [23], [25].…”

“…By increasing temperature, voltage decreases and current increases. Increasing 1 0 C temperature, the current increases up to 0.05% while, voltage is decreased by 0.37%, resulting in overall decrease of power by 0.5% [22][23]. The simulated results of particular model are shown in Figure 9, which illustrate the behavior of output power with respect to temperature.…”

<p>Advancements in the field of energy are among priorities of modern-day research. Most of the modern studies concern particularly on renewable energy resources especially that of Solar Energy to meet the energy demand of the future energy markets. Solar energy is one of the richest sources of nature, but involvement of environmental effects readily affects the overall performance of the Photovoltaic Panel. This paper highlights the importance of the solar energy, techniques and comparison of mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline and their particular energy profile. A Matlab/Simulink model is constructed to analyze the behavior of solar cell on effect of irradiance and temperature. Experimental results show the adverse effect of humidity, shading, direction and climate changes on the performance of the solar cell.</p>

There is an increasing reliance on renewable energy especially Solar Energy as the fossils are on the way to depletion.It offers an environmental friendly solution with an affordable comparative paradigm. Solar photovoltaic-thermal collectors have remained of the particular interest because of their higher overall efficiencies. Most of its applications related with solar hybrid PVT systems focuses more on electrical output rather than thermal output, and the contacting fluid is allowed to act as a coolant to assure that the solar cell operates in the ranges specified by the manufacturer to guarantee higher electrical efficiency. This ultimately allows fluid to retain higher temperature that could be utilized for meeting the heating demand of any residential household. First, the PVT analyses are performed over a system comprising of Fresnel-based Solar Module to allow higher irradiance to fall for relative higher conversion of efficiency and to achieve higher temperature ranges in the contacting fluid (water). The electrical parameters are compared, and a significant increase in the power ranges is concluded. Secondly, a simulated thermal structure of the heating tank is presented that utilises the heated water from the PVT system in meeting the heating demand of a residential household. When accounting all the electrical parameters, approximately 10% increase is noticed in power produced, and sufficient energy used for the traditional heating of water is retained.
