pv magazine test: October 2021 results
As detailed in the October edition, the pv magazine test rooftop PV installation was reconfigured to ensure more accurate tracking of the high-power, high-current modules using microinverters. George Touloupas, senior director of technology and quality at CEA, discusses additional modifications to accommodate high currents on the rooftop, and presents the first results from the newly configured array.
By Oct. 18, replacement and reconfiguration of the microinverters had been completed, and since then module performance has been tracked, except for three days of mandated power cuts. During this period, we observed some energy yield anomalies for the high current modules, the root cause of which is the difference in resistive losses for the …
