where p represents the parameter of the photovoltaic cell and T is the temperature. The dependence of the photovoltaic cell parameter function of the temperature is approximately linear [ 21 ], and thus, the temperature coefficients of the parameters can be determined experimentally using the linear regression method [ 22 ].
Since the PV cell parameters (V oc , J sc , FF) usually vary linearly with temperature, it is possible to separate the temperature sensitivity of a device performance into the sum of their temperature coefficients:
a variety of “effective” temperature coefficients for of commercially available photovoltaic modules. In the table, the units for the temperature coefficients have been normalized to 1PC by dividing the coefficient by the value for the parameter at ASTM Standard Reporting Conditions (1000 W/m2, AM=1.5, 25 The normalized coefficients “C).
The absolute and normalized temperature coefficients are determined and compared with their values from the related literature. The variation of the absolute temperature coefficient function of the irradiance and its significance to accurately determine the important parameters of the photovoltaic cells are also presented.
The efficiency of photovoltaic conversion is fundamentally dependent upon the converter temperature. This temperature dependence is negative and its magnitude depends upon the bandgap of the PV device. In general, solar cells made of larger bandgap semiconductors have lower temperature sensitivities.
The temperature coefficients of PV devices are function of a large number of parameters that can be tuned by design. There exist several opportunities for optimizing the temperature dependences of PV devices performances.
