[IEEE 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Chicago, IL, USA (2019.6.16-2019.6.21)] 2019 IEEE 46th Photovoltaic Specialists Conference (PVSC) - Experimental Study of the Spectral and Angular Solar Irradiance
摘要： We developed an experimental set-up and procedure to measure spectral and angular solar irradiance to accurately predict and optimize solar power plant performance. The set-up is comprised of a fiber coupled spectrometer mounted to a rotational stage which allows for 360? light capture. The lightweight and flexible design enables irradiance measurements at any location. Measurements were taken in Enschede, Netherlands and in Phoenix, AZ, USA. We find a strong location, dependence of spectro-angular irradiance on the surroundings and cloud coverage which needs to be considered when modelling and optimizing location dependent solar power plant output.

Simulation of a Novel Configuration for Luminescent Solar Concentrator Photovoltaic Devices Using Bifacial Silicon Solar Cells
摘要： In this study, a novel configuration for luminescent solar concentrator photovoltaic (LSC PV) devices is presented, with vertically placed bifacial PV solar cells made of mono-crystalline silicon (mono c-Si). This LSC PV device comprises multiple rectangular cuboid lightguides, made of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), containing Lumogen dyes, in particular, either Lumogen red 305 or orange 240. The bifacial solar cells are located in between these lightguide cubes and can, therefore, receive irradiance at both of their surfaces. The main aim of this study is to theoretically determine the power conversion efficiency (PCE) of five differently configured LSC PV devices. For this purpose, Monte Carlo ray tracing simulations were executed to analyze the irradiance at receiving PV cell surfaces, as well as the optical performance of these LSC PV devices. Five different LSC PV devices, with different geometries and varying dye concentrations, were modeled. To maximize the device efficiency, the bifacial cells were also attached to the back side of the lightguides. The ray tracing simulations resulted in a maximum efficiency of 16.9% under standard test conditions (STC) for a 15 × 15 cm2 LSC PV device, consisting of nine rectangular cuboid 5 × 5 × 1 cm3 PMMA lightguides with 5 ppm orange 240 dye, with 12 vertically positioned 5 × 1 cm2 bifacial cells in between the lightguides and nine 5 × 5 cm2 PV cells attached to the back of the device. If the cells are not applied to the back of this LSC PV device configuration, the maximum PCE will be 2.9% (under STC), where the LSC PV device consists of 25 cubical 1 × 1 × 1 cm3 PMMA lightguides with 110 ppm red 305 dye and 40 vertically oriented bifacial PV cells of 1 × 1 cm2 in between the lightguides. These results show the vast future potential for LSC PV technologies, with a higher performance and efficiency than the common threshold PCE for LSC PV devices of 10%.

AIP Conference Proceedings [AIP Publishing 15th International Conference on Concentrator Photovoltaic Systems (CPV-15) - Fes, Morocco (25–27 March 2019)] 15th International Conference on Concentrator Photovoltaic Systems (CPV-15) - Concentrator bifacial crystalline silicon solar cells with Al-alloyed BSF and Ag-free multi-wire metallization
摘要： We present Ag-free low-concentrator bifacial indium-fluorine-oxide (IFO)/(n+pp+)Cz-Si/indium-tin-oxide (ITO) solar cells based on: (i) a shallow phosphorus-doped n+-emitter; (ii) an easy-to-fabricate screen-printed Al-alloyed Al-p+ back-surface-field (BSF); (iii) transparent conductive IFO and ITO layers grown by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis, which act as passivating and antireflection electrode; (iv) Ag-free multi-wire metallization of copper wire attached by the low-temperature lamination method simultaneously to the front IFO layer, rear ITO layer as well as to the interconnecting ribbons arranged outside the structure using transparent conductive polymer films. For the manufacture of solar cells, we used standard commercially available SiNx/(n+pp+)Cz-Si/Al structures. After removal of the residual Al paste, the Al-p+ layer was thinned by one-sided etchback process. A number of solar cells were prepared differing in the sheet resistance of the Al-p+ layer (Rp+), which ranged from 14 ?/sq (original, non-etched Al-p+ layer) to 123 ?/sq. It was found that thinning of the Al-p+ layer (increase in Rp+) greatly improved all the parameters of solar cells. The cell with Rp+ = 81 ?/sq showed the best combination of conversion parameters. Under 1-sun front/rear illumination, the conversion efficiency of this cell is 17.5%/11.2% (against 16.0%/7.5% for the cell with Rp+ = 14 ?/sq). At 1-sun front illumination and 20/50% albedo of 1-sun illumination, the equivalent efficiency is equal to 19.9%/23.5% (against 17.7%/20.1% for the cell with Rp+ = 14 ?/sq). At a sunlight concentration ratio (kC) of 2.3–2.7 suns, the cells with Rp+ in the range 45–123 ?/sq showed approximately similar maximum front-side efficiency, 17.5–17.9%. However, the operating range of sunlight concentration ratio (kC,OR) determined as η(kC,OR) = η(kC = 1) showed a tendency to decrease from 5.8 ± 0.6 suns to 4 ± 0.5 suns with an increase in Rp+ from 14–45 ?/sq to 63–123 ?/sq.
