The design and operation of solar cells are treated in detail, but only so far as it is necessary to understand operation and possible operational problems of photovoltaic (PV) plants and to appreciate possible further technical developments and improvements in the future. The layout and construction of entire photovoltaic plants (both stand-alone and grid-connected systems) are covered in one chapter. The methods and procedures for the design of stand-alone systems and calculation of the yield of grid-connected PV plants with pocket calculators or readily available standard software programs are also shown. For many locations in Germany, Switzerland, Austria and the rest of Europe, North and South America, Africa, Asia and Australia the data that are needed for such calculations can be found in the book. For some grid-connected PV plants detailed, long-term monitoring data that were measured over many years (up to 17 years) are provided. Unique to this book, lightening and overvoltage protection of PV plants is reported, as is a normalized representation of energy yield and power of PV plants. The book concludes with a summary and a look toward the future of this technology.目录Foreword xiiiPreface xvAbout the Author xviiAcknowledgements xixNote on the Examples and Costs xxiList of Symbols xxiii1 Introduction 11.1 Photovoltaics – What’s It All About? 11.2 Overview of This Book 11.3 A Brief Glossary of Key PV Terms 101.4 Recommended Guide Values for Estimating PV System Potential 141.5 Examples 241.6 Bibliography 252 Key Properties of Solar Radiation 272.1 Sun and Earth 272.2 Extraterrestrial Radiation 312.3 Radiation on the Horizontal Plane of the Earth’s Surface 322.4 Simple Method for Calculating Solar Radiation on Inclined Surfaces 392.5 Radiation Calculation on Inclined Planes with Three-Component Model 492.6 Approximate Annual Energy Yield for Grid-Connected PV Systems 682.7 Composition of Solar Radiation 712.8 Solar Radiation Measurement 712.9 Bibliography 763 Solar Cells: Their Design Engineering and Operating Principles 793.1 The Internal Photoelectric Effect in Semiconductors 793.2 A Brief Account of Semiconductor Theory 813.3 The Solar Cell: A Specialized Semiconductor Diode With a Large Barrier Layer that is Exposed to Light 863.4 Solar Cell Efficiency 943.5 The Most Important Types of Solar Cells and the Attendant Manufacturing Methods 1083.6 Bifacial Solar Cells 1223.7 Examples 1223.8 Bibliography 1244 Solar Modules and Solar Generators 1274.1 Solar Modules 1274.2 Potential Solar Cell Wiring Problems 1384.3 Interconnection of Solar Modules and Solar Generators 1494.4 Solar Generator Power Loss Resulting from Partial Shading and Mismatch Loss 1604.5 Solar Generator Structure 1664.6 Examples 2174.7 Bibliography 2215 PV Energy Systems 2235.1 Stand-alone PV Systems 2235.2 Grid-Connected Systems 2625.3 Bibliography 3896 Protecting PV Installations Against Lightning 3956.1 Probability of Direct Lightning Strikes 3956.2 Lightning Strikes: Guide Value; Main Effects 3986.3 Basic Principles of Lightning Protection 4006.4 Shunting Lightning Current to a Series of Down-conductors 4026.5 Potential Increases; Equipotential Bonding 4046.6 Lightning-Current-Induced Voltages and Current 4086.7 PV Installation Lightning Protection Experiments 4326.8 Optimal Sizing of PV Installation Lightning Protection Devices 4596.9 Recommendations for PV Installation Lightning Protection 4706.1 Recap and Conclusions 4846.11 Bibliography 4857 Standardized Representation of Energy and Power of PV Systems 4877.1 Introduction 4877.2 Standardized Yield, Losses and Performance Ratio 4877.3 Normalized Diagrams for Yields and Losses 4917.4 Normalized PV Installation Power Output 4957.5 Anomaly Detection Using Various Types of Diagrams 5027.6 Recap and Conclusions 5067.7 Bibliography 5068 PV Installation Sizing 5078.1 Principal of and Baseline Values for Yield Calculations 5078.2 Energy Yield Determination for Grid-Connected Systems 5238.3 Sizing PV Installations that Integrate a Battery Pack 5338.4 Insolation Calculation Freeware 5498.5 Simulation Software 5508.6 Bibliography9 The Economics of Solar Power 5519.1 How Much Does Solar Energy Cost? 5539.2 Grey Energy; Energy Payback Time; Yield Factor 5629.3 Bibliography 56610 Performance Characteristics of Selected PV Installations 56910.1 Energy Yield Data and Other Aspects of Selected PV Installations 56910.2 Long Term Comparison of Four Swiss PV Installations 61410.3 Long Term Energy Yield of the Burgdorf Installation 61710.4 Mean PV Installation Energy Yield in Germany 61910.5 Bibliography 62011 In Conclusion… 623Annex A: Calculation Tables and Insolation Data 633A1 Insolation Calculation Tables 633A2 Aggregate Monthly Horizontal Global Irradiance 634A3 Global Insolation for Various Reference Locations 634A4RBFactors for Insolation Calculations Using the Three-Component Model 648A5 Shading Diagrams for Various Latitudes 673A6 Energy Yield Calculation Tables 676A7 kT and kG Figures for Energy Yield Calculations 681A8 Insolation and Energy Yield Calculation Maps 683A8.1 Specimen polar shading diagramAppendix B: Links; Books; Acronyms; etc. 691B1 Links to PV Web Sites 691B2 Books on Photovoltaic and Related Areas 693B3 Acronyms 695B4 Prefixes for Decimal Fractions and Metric Multiples 696B5 Conversion Factors 696B6 Key Physical Constants 696Index 697
