Stacking algorithm for PV module fault diagnosis
Researchers in Norway have created a PV module fault diagnosis technique based on a stacking algorithm. It utilizes augmented digital images of PV modules collected by unmanned aerial vehicles and is able to detect snail trails, delamination, glass breakages, discoloration, and burn marks.
New methods for fault detection revealed at EU PVSEC
Quality control and problem detection and classification was brought into focus at the conference in Marseille. A packed house at a session focused on the latest fault detection techniques indicated the high level of interest in the field.
