Experimental Setup of PV Panel Efficiency and Fluctuation Data Analyzer Using Image Processing

Abstract

Solar energy is gaining strong momentum as the future clean and renewable source among other sources of energy. Solar power generation has attracted much attention but there are not enough specialists for condition monitoring of the solar panel. As solar panels are exposed to outside conditions there are chances of reduction in efficiency due to dust, partial shading, cracks, delamination etc. this Project provides the analysis at normal and some faulty condition using equipment like PV analyzer, Solar Power Meter and thermal camera to compare the results. The obtained data is periodically uploaded to the cloud using NodeMcu, the uploaded data can be further used for monitoring the installed plant.
