Current-voltage characteristics and power as a function of solar cell voltage. The most important parameters for users of photovoltaic systems include: maximum power, fill factor and photovoltaic conversion efficiency (photovoltaic cell efficiency) [24–28].
The output power of the PV cell is voltage times current, so there is no output power for a short-circuit condition because of VOUT or for an open-circuit condition because of IOUT = 0. Above the short-circuit point, the PV cell operates with a resistive load.
The electrical characteristics of a photovoltaic array are summarised in the relationship between the output current and voltage. The amount and intensity of solar insolation (solar irradiance) controls the amount of output current ( ), and the operating temperature of the solar cells affects the output voltage ( ) of the PV array.
Other important characteristics include how the current varies as a function of the output voltage and as a function of light intensity or irradiance. The current-voltage (I-V) curve for a PV cell shows that the current is essentially constant over a range of output voltages for a specified amount of incident light energy.
A solar cell is a semiconductor device that can convert solar radiation into electricity. Its ability to convert sunlight into electricity without an intermediate conversion makes it unique to harness the available solar energy into useful electricity. That is why they are called Solar Photovoltaic cells. Fig. 1 shows a typical solar cell.
