The
increasing demand for cleaner energy solutions has led to the exploration of
renewable energy sources, particularly solar photovoltaic (PV) technology. This
research focuses on the thermal management of solar PV systems in Tembalang
Village, Central Java, Indonesia, where the efficiency of PV panels is
significantly affected by temperature fluctuations caused by environmental
factors such as pollution, wind speed, humidity, solar radiation, and ambient
temperature. The study highlights the importance of effective thermal
management systems to enhance the energy efficiency of PV panels, which
typically operate at an average efficiency of around 20%. As temperatures rise,
the efficiency of these panels can drop by 10% to 25%, necessitating the implementation
of cooling technologies.
