Datasets & Competitions

A statistical subset of 385 PV modules was extracted from 10,413 silicon single-sided PV Modules from the California Solar Equipment database.

From the PV characteristic of the number of series PC cells Ns, open circuit voltage Voc, maximum power voltage Vmp, maximum power current Imp, and short circuit current Is, the solutions from the 5 Parameter Model were found for each.

5 parameter values: diode ideality factor η, series resistance Rs, parallel resistance Rp, photon light current IL, and diode reverse saturation current Io.

The standard for measurement of solar irradiance utilizes the units of watts per meter squared (W/m2).  Irradiance meters are both costly and limited in the ability to measure low irradiance values.  With a lower cost and higher sensitivity in low light conditions, light meters measure luminous flux per unit area (illuminance) utilizing the units of lumens per meter squared or lux (lx).
