- Abstract:
- This paper discusses the influences of dynamic environmental conditions on the output performances of photovoltaics. Commonly, photovoltaic (PV) modules are installed on the roofs of houses, onto which shading is caused by clouds and surrounding objects such as trees and other buildings. These ambient conditions can be referred as static environmental conditions. We also elaborate on the differences in the rate of change in the solar radiation level if PV modules are mounted onto the top of battery-powered electric vehicles (BEVs) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). We present a comparison of static and dynamic environmental conditions which is helpful in evaluating the performance of maximum power point tracking (MPPT) techniques.
