Intertek CEA's Joerg Althaus examines some of the most commonly found tracking and racking defects in PV power plants.

Statkraft and 3E analysed 64 utility-scale PV plants, representing 2.1GWp DC capacity, with datasets spanning six months to five years.

Without quality control, even expensive, high-precision radiometers can generate misleading data, according to Solargis' Marcel Suri.

Marco Zaniboni and Juanma Fernandez of Sonnedix examine the key considerations in deciding whether to revamp, repower or retrofit.

Solargis' Marcel Suri asks if the solar industry is using the best available science to characterise real-world solar resource conditions?

The industry must adopt better approaches to component management, to make more accurate energy yield predictions and optimise PV performance.

The ability of PV simulation software to accurately simulate energy performance for bifacial modules leaves more questions than answers.

The biodiversity benefits of a solar farm can help garner support. Tom Kenning looks at the scientific understanding of PV’s ecological impact.

As solar projects become more complex, Typical Meteorological Year data is holding the industry back, according to Solargis' Marcel Suri.
