Solar cell performance decreases with increasing temperature, fundamentally owing to increased internal carrier recombination rates, caused by increased carrier concentrations. The operating temperature plays a key role in the photovoltaic conversion process.
Considering from the perspective of light, the increase in temperature is beneficial to PV power generation, because it will increase the free electron–hole pairs (i.e., carriers) generated by the PV effect in the cell to a certain extent . However, excessively high temperature cannot increase the final output of the SC.
The first (crystalline silicon (c-Si)) and second (copper indium gallium selenide (CIGS)) generations of PV cells have been chosen for this study. A range of ambient temperatures, −10 °C to 50 °C, at an interval of 5 °C, will be used to investigate the influence of temperature on PV system performance, using the chosen PV cells.
The accrued heat energy increases the PV panel working temperature, consequently, leading to the system's voltage drop . Under STCs, for each degree rise in temperature, the PCE of the PV panel is decreased by around 0.40–0.50 % . The simulation results show that: i.
