Özet

The present paper is mainly a comparison of the performances of two PV systems under outdoor conditions in Ankara. The systems are grid connected and consist of two PV arrays. The types of these PV arrays are CdTe thin film and amorphous silicon/micro-crystalline-based (μc-Si/a-Si) arrays. They are operated for 3 years; 2012-2014. Yearly averages of monthly efficiencies of these two systems working under the same ambient conditions are 6.88%, 6.65%, 6.80% and 6.64%, 5.86%, 5.25% for μc-Si/a-Si and CdTe, respectively. Using these values, simple calculation results for the degradation rates per year are about 0.39%/year and 6.98%/year, respectively for these two types of systems.
