A Worldwide Cost-based Design and Optimization of Tilted Bifacial Solar Farms
M. Tahir Patel, M. Ryyan Khan, Xingshu Sun +1
The steady decrease in the levelized cost of solar energy (LCOE) has made it increasingly cost-competitive against fossil fuels. The cost reduction is supported by a combination of…
Electrical Signatures of Corrosion and Solder Bond Failure in c-Si Solar Cells and Modules
Reza Asadpour, Xingshu Sun, Muhammad. Ashraful Alam
Moisture- and temperature-activated corrosion of metal fingers, mechanical stress induced delamination, and failure of solder bonds rank among the leading failure mechanisms of sol…
Ground sculpting to enhance vertical bifacial solar farm output
M. Ryyan Khan, Enas Sakr, Xingshu Sun +2
The prospect of additional energy yield and improved reliability have increased commercial interest in bifacial solar modules. A number of recent publications have quantified the b…
In-Situ Self-Monitoring of Real-Time Photovoltaic Degradation Only Using Maximum Power Point: the Suns-Vmp Method
Xingshu Sun, Raghu Vamsi Krishna Chavali, Muhammad Ashraful Alam
The uncertainties associated with technology- and geography-specific degradation rates make it difficult to calculate the levelized cost of energy (LCOE), and thus the economic via…
