Conference Record of the IEEE Photovoltaic Specialists Conference
Photovoltaic (PV) modules with attached microinverters are becoming increasingly popular in PV systems, especially in the residential system market, as such systems offer several benefits not found in PV systems utilizing central inverters. PV modules with fully integrated microinverters are emerging to fill a similar market space. These 'AC modules' absorb solar energy and produce AC energy without allowing access to the intermediate DC bus. Existing test procedures and performance models designed for separate DC and AC components are unusable when the inverter is integrated into the module. Sandia National Laboratories is developing a new set of test procedures and performance model designed for AC modules. © 2013 IEEE.

Performance model assessment for multi-junction concentrating photovoltaic systems
Four approaches to modeling multi-junction concentrating photovoltaic system performance are assessed by comparing modeled performance to measured performance. Measured weather, irradiance, and system performance data were collected on two systems over a one month period. Residual analysis is used to assess the models and to identify opportunities for model improvement.
Performance model assessment for multi-junction concentrating photovoltaic systems
Four approaches to modeling multi-junction concentrating photovoltaic system performance are assessed by comparing modeled performance to measured performance. Measured weather, irradiance, and system performance data were collected on two systems over a one month period. Residual analysis is used to assess the models and to identify opportunities for model improvement. Large photovoltaic systems are typically developed as projects which supply electricity to a utility and are owned by independent power producers. Obtaining financing at favorable rates and attracting investors requires confidence in the projected energy yield from the plant. In this paper, various performance models for projecting annual energy yield from Concentrating Photovoltaic (CPV) systems are assessed by comparing measured system output to model predictions based on measured weather and irradiance data. The results are statistically analyzed to identify systematic error sources.
