The precision of solar photovoltaic power measurements doubled

Friday, September 18, 2015 - 08:30 in Physics & Chemistry

An analysis carried out by JRC scientists shows that the uncertainty in measurement of power generation from a photovoltaic (PV) cell can be more than halved, thus bringing an economic benefit to both manufacturers and investors. With the annual world PV production exceeding 40 GW in 2014 and a market value of over €25bn, this is good news for customers, utilities, the production industry and future R&D efforts in the field of renewable energy.
