Photovoltaic energy systems: design and installation

Book ·
OSTI ID:6155573
The design and installation of photovoltaic systems with fixed flat-plate photovoltaic modules is the subject of this book. Topics discussed include the basics of photovoltaic cell response, solar cell array protection, integration of PV models into the roofing structures of buildings, and systems energy storage. The combination of descriptions, illustrations, and sample problems clarify the concepts and methods involved. Includes a bibliography, several appendices which include data needed for design calculations, a glossary, and a subject index. Contents, abridged: Solar energy. The silicon solar-cell response. Building a solar-cell array. The photovoltaic-energy system. System design procedures. Photovoltaic-array installation.
