Waves, wind & floating PV
Dutch proving ground TNO is establishing an examination center for floating PV plants in Oostvoornse, where it will certainly examine the effect of wind as well as waves on floating frameworks as well as module return. TNO Senior Project Manager Jan Kroon informed pv magazine that it will certainly analyze module damages and also the influence of waves on light absorption. It has actually currently discovered that the proportion in between wave-height and also wave-length is an essential consider inequality losses, while keeping in mind that optimizers as well as micro-inverters on panels can alleviate losses.
