Performance evaluation of a rooftop solar photovoltaic power plant
The main problem of the PV system is to capture sunlight efficiently and convert it into electricity. When solar photovoltaic module operates into the real environment, its output characteristics vary compared to standard test conditions (1000 W/m 2 irradiance, 1.5 AM and 25 °C temperature). The output power of a SPV module is affected by local climatic parameters
