Experimental Investigation of the Effects of Partial Shading on Photovoltaic Cells’ Electrical Parameters

The short-circuit current (Isc), the open-circuit voltage (Voc), and the maximum power point (VMPP, IMPP) of monocrystalline and multicrystalline silicon solar cells under three kinds of partial shading patterns have been investigated experimentally. The partial shades are, respectively, the nine sh...
