Optimization and Performance of Bifacial Solar Modules: A Global Perspective
Xingshu Sun, Mohammad Ryyan Khan, Chris Deline +1
With the rapidly growing interest in bifacial photovoltaics (PV), a worldwide map of their potential performance can help assess and accelerate the global deployment of this emergi…
Vertical Bifacial Solar Farms: Physics, Design, and Global Optimization
M. Ryyan Khan, Amir Hanna, Xingshu Sun +1
There have been sustained interest in bifacial solar cell technology since 1980s, with prospects of 30-50% increase in the output power from a stand-alone single panel. Moreover, a…
An Illumination- and Temperature-Dependent Analytical Model for Copper Indium Gallium Diselenide (CIGS) Solar Cells
Xingshu Sun, Timothy Silverman, Rebekah Garris +2
In this paper, we present a physics-based analytical model for CIGS solar cells that describes the illumination- and temperature-dependent current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and…
An Optics-Based Approach to Thermal Management of Photovoltaics: Selective-Spectral and Radiative Cooling
Xingshu Sun, Timothy J Silverman, Zhiguang Zhou +3
For commercial one-sun solar modules, up to 80% of the incoming sunlight may be dissipated as heat, potentially raising the temperature 20 C - 30 C higher than the ambient. In the…
