This review paper aims to evaluate the impact of defects on the reliability and degradation of photovoltaic (PV) modules during outdoor exposure. A comprehensive analysis of existing literature was conducted to identify the primary causes of degradation and failure modes in PV modules, with a particular focus on the effect of defects.
A review of relevant industry literature and research reveals that the degradation of photovoltaic systems can be attributed to several key factors, starting at the material level of the photovoltaic panels.
The degradation of photovoltaic (PV) systems is one of the key factors to address in order to reduce the cost of the electricity produced by increasing the operational lifetime of PV systems. To reduce the degradation, it is imperative to know the degradation and failure phenomena.
In conclusion, this review highlights the significant impact of defects on the reliability and degradation of PV modules during outdoor exposure. The RPN analysis can effectively identify specific defects that have the greatest influence on module performance, including dust accumulation, module shading and humidity.
