1-Introduction:
The sun provides the energy to sustain life in our solar system. In one
hour, the earth receives enough energy from the sun to meet its energy
needs for nearly a year. Photovoltaic is the direct conversion of sunlight
to electricity. It is an attractive alternative to conventional sources of
electricity for many reasons: it is safe, silent, and non-polluting,
renewable, highly modular in that their capacity can be increased
incrementally to match with gradual load growth, and reliable with
minimal failure rates and projected service lifetimes of 20 to 30 years. It
requires no special training to operate; it contains no moving parts, it is
extremely reliable and virtually maintenance free; and it can be installed
almost anywhere. The intensity of the sunlight that reaches the earth
varies with time of the day, season, location, and the weather
conditions. The total energy on a daily or annual basis is called
irradiation and indicates the strength of the sunshine. Irradiation is
expressed in Wh.m2 per day or for instance kWh.m2 per day.
