This paper includes the verification of the characteristic equation for the output current generated by a solar panel. The characteristic equation is simulated by using MATLAB/Simulink. Many factors that affect the performance of the solar energy tracking system need to be considered profoundly for the complete & effective utilization of the available energy. This work deals with the study of t...

The Sun encompasses planet Earth, supplies the heat that warms it, and even shakes it. The United Nation’s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) assumed that solar influence on Earth’s climate is limited to changes in solar irradiance and adopted the consensus opinion of a hydrogen-filled Sun—the Standard Solar Model (SSM). They did not consider the alternative solar model and instea...

In today’s climatic conditions such as unprecedented amounts of rain and frequent heat waves, cultivating has become a tedious task. Predicting nature’s next move is not easy but what we can do minimize its effect on the yield. There are so many regions that receive excessive rainfall, suffer flash floods scorching heat. To adapt to these conditions, sensor networks be deployed in fields availa...

<p><span lang="EN-US">Solar panel quality inspection is a time consuming and costly task. This study tries to develop as reliable method for evaluating the panels by using ensemble technique based on three machine learning models namely logistic regression, support vector artificial neural network. The data in this came from infrared camera which were captured dark room. are supplie...

Buyers in the residential solar photovoltaic (PV) market are o‰en not fully informed about all competitors’ prices when making a purchase decision. Consumers’ lack of complete price information can incentivize sellers to charge higher markups, leading to less adoption. Large markups directly counteract public programs that subsidize solar PV. In this paper, I use proprietary data on consumers’ ...
