Additionally, the effects of aging factors on solar PV performance, including the lifetime, efficiency, material degradation, overheating, and mismatching, are critically investigated. Furthermore, the main drawbacks, issues, and challenges associated with solar PV aging are addressed to identify any unfulfilled research needs.
Aging factors influence the solar panel in such a way that it starts to slowly lose its power generation capability. The continuation of this process for a long period triggers the reduction in power generation and, after a time, the solar panel is fully degraded before its expected lifespan.
One of the reasons contributing to the decline in solar PV performance is the aging issue. This study comprehensively examines the effects and difficulties associated with aging and degradation in solar PV applications.
The degradation of solar photovoltaic (PV) modules is caused by a number of factors that have an impact on their effectiveness, performance, and lifetime. One of the reasons contributing to the decline in solar PV performance is the aging issue.
Kazem et al. evaluated the effect of aging on a grid-connected photovoltaic system by investigating a 1.4 KW PV plant exposed for 7 years; the results indicate that the efficiency of the PV modules decreased by 5.88%, and it is also notable that the degradation rate was severe during the summer months because of the dust density .
This study provides an in-depth examination of the soiling impact on PV modules over time (1942 to 2019). Although a comprehensive overview of the literature on the soiling impact on PV modules is provided in this work, it does not show how soiling accelerates PV aging.
