Cantürk, Zeynep; Özden, Talat; Akinoglu, Bulent G.
Outdoor tests of photovoltaics module are crucial both for marketing and for research and technological developments. The electric generation performance and their degradation rates and lifetime are also related to different climatic conditions of the regions. In this work, the outdoor tests are carried out for six different photovoltaic (PV) modules under Arid-steppe Climate condition of Ankara, Türkiye. Their degradation rates are calculated by using linear regression (LR) and year on year (YOY) methods. The comparison between LR and YOY are carried out and with the other performed studies of different regions of world. In addition, it is investigated that how effective the climatic conditions on daily degradation rates. The results obtained are as follows: Mono-Si and Hetero-junction Silicon (HIT) cell modules degradation rates of 0.71/1.56 %/year and 0.84 %/year are respectively obtained by LR method and 0.57/0.90 %/year and 0.85%/year are respectively by YOY method. The degradation rates for Cupper Indium Selenide (CIS), Cupper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) and microcrystalline Silicon/Amorphous Silicon (µc-Si/a-Si) modules have 1.73/1.49 %/year, 11.55/9.52 %/year and 1.48 %/year for LR method and 1.28/1.12 %/year, 9.94/9.53 %/year and 0.99 %/year for YOY method are obtained respectively. It is also obtained for the Polycrystalline Silicon Modules as 1.20/1.86 %/year degradation rates by LR method and 0.79/1.88 %/year degradation rates by YOY method.

Photovoltaic Power Plants have a considerable share among solar energy conversion technologies toward environmentally sustainable and economically feasible electricity production. However, when a rural region's land surface formed by natural soil types is covered by a Photovoltaic Power Plant (PVPP)'s dark-colored solar modules in large numbers, an artificial albedo (reflectivity) change is expected on that surface. Because of the heat exchange between these modules and the air surrounding them due to albedo alteration, the region's natural weather conditions may experience Photovoltaic Heat Island Effect (PVHIE) as a result of external and time-dependent air temperature oscillations caused by the warming-cooling cycles of solar modules. To observe and analyze a possible PVHIE trend, it has been conducting a field study project since October 2017 for a PVPP near the Sekbandemirli rural region in the Kutahya city of Turkey. The weather data, including air temperature and wind (direction and speed) at every 10-minute and hourly intervals, are collected by the three weather monitoring stations installed at the specific locations inside and outside the PVPP field. The plant's hourly average power output and module temperature data can also be monitored. After conducting statistical, correlational, and graphical analyses, the results show some temporal PVHI formations at the PVPP field center daily and on a seasonal basis. The plant center's air temperature tends to be warmer (up to the 6°C difference) during daytimes and colder (up to the (-3)°C difference) during nighttimes.
