... The efficiency PV module system depends on air temperature and thus solar panel temperature is usually between 15°C to 35 °C. When at the lower temperatures, the power of the PV module system increase, while at the higher temperature it will lose efficiency per degree over 25°C , .
In a steady-state controlled environment, the experimental results show that the measured voltage, current and its power decrease with time as the temperature of the photovoltaic panel increases. As a result, the efficiency of the photovoltaic module will decrease progressively.
Thus, to maintain the efficiency of a photovoltaic panel, cooling technologies should be implemented to ensure the panel works within the optimized temperature.
