The impact of nonuniform soiling on PV system performance

A UK-Saudi research group has investigated the impact of uneven soiling on PV modules and has found that it can lead to enhanced performance losses due to different operational effects at intra-cell level. The academics conducted a series of experiments on a residential rooftop in Muscat, Oman, throughout 2021. A team of scientists from the Imperial College London in the United Kingdom and the Imam Abdulrahman Bin Faisal University in Saudi Arabia have investigated for the first time the effect of intra-cell nonuniform distributions of soiling on PV module surfaces. "To the best of the authors' ...
