In this work, based on a proposed long-term behavioral generator model, the most common aging mechanisms of solar panels have been modelled and simulated. The results have been validated against a real solar medium-high power generator designed for grid connection in Spain.
Moreover, an equivalent scheme for the additional electrical resistance engendered by the aging of the photovoltaic module regarding other resistances of the photovoltaic system is given. Finally, the elevation of this resistance by 12.8% in 20 years may have non-negligible consequences on the power production of a large-scale installation.
Kazem et al. evaluated the effect of aging on a grid-connected photovoltaic system by investigating a 1.4 KW PV plant exposed for 7 years; the results indicate that the efficiency of the PV modules decreased by 5.88%, and it is also notable that the degradation rate was severe during the summer months because of the dust density .
Additionally, the effects of aging factors on solar PV performance, including the lifetime, efficiency, material degradation, overheating, and mismatching, are critically investigated. Furthermore, the main drawbacks, issues, and challenges associated with solar PV aging are addressed to identify any unfulfilled research needs.
Aging factors influence the solar panel in such a way that it starts to slowly lose its power generation capability. The continuation of this process for a long period triggers the reduction in power generation and, after a time, the solar panel is fully degraded before its expected lifespan.
One of the reasons contributing to the decline in solar PV performance is the aging issue. This study comprehensively examines the effects and difficulties associated with aging and degradation in solar PV applications.
Aging is the term that is used to describe the degradation of a PV module before its expected lifespan [8, 9]. The factors that underlie the reduction in the lifetime of a PV module can be defined as aging factors. The roots of this degeneration are aging-related issues.
