Switch for the Optimization of Module Power by Reconfiguration of All Strings (SOMBRA): An Insulated Integrated Switch for a Reconfigurable Solar Panel

The energy yield of a solar panel can be severely impacted by partial shading. Shade caused by nearby static objects can hardly be avoided in installations such as building-applied or building-integrated photovoltaics. Smart reconfigurable photovoltaics (PV) panels are able to change their intra-mod...
