Unfortunately, variations in the electrical characteristics of the PV cells can occur, resulting in a mismatch in the string current.

View moreEfficiency losses in the solar cell result from parasitic absorption, in which absorbed light does not help produce charge carriers. Addressing and reducing parasitic absorption is necessary to increase the overall efficiency and performance of solar cells (Werner et al., 2016a).
The photovoltaic sector is now led by silicon solar cells because of their well-established technology and relatively high efficiency. Currently, industrially made silicon solar modules have an efficiency between 16% and 22% (Anon (2023b)).
They found that the most common causes of early failure are junction box failure, glass breakage, defective cell interconnect, loose frame, and delamination. A study by DeGraaff on PV modules that had been in the field for at least 8 years estimated that around 2% of PV modules failed after 11–12 years.
Moreover, the efficiency of a solar cell is the ratio of electrical output at maximum power point (MPP) and total power of incident light. The electrical output at the maximum power point can be obtained by multiplying the current (J mp) and the voltage (V mp) of the cell at MPP. Therefore, the efficiency ɳ can be expressed as Equation (3).
Effective spectral utilization can be achieved by using a variety of methods, such as multiple junctions, intermediate band gaps, quantum dot spectral converters, luminescent down-shifting (LDS) layers, and up-conversion materials. Solar cell efficiency could be considerably increased by improving spectrum utilization.
Literature indicates that at a cell temperature of 36°C, efficiency somewhat increases by up to 12%. However, efficiency starts to decrease above this temperature, as Fig. 13 a illustrates. There are many efficient methods for controlling the operating temperature of solar cells which include both active and passive approaches.
