The effects of the solar beam color characteristics to the photovoltai̇c energy producti̇on

ABSTRACT THE EFFECTS OF THE SOLAR BEAM COLOR CHARACTERİSTİCS TO THE PHOTOVOLTAİC ENERGY PRODUCTİON The energy supplier of the world, the Sun, is the main source of many types of energy directly or indirectly for us. In addition to these benefits, solar energy has been a source of electricity for about 20-30 years. This electrical energy production technology, which is realized with photovoltaic panels, has become more widespread in recent years both the increase in energy efficiency of the panels and fall of the cost. In this study, the effects of physical parameters of solar radiation on electrical energy production are investigated by examining the principles of energy production in photovoltaic panels. As the physical parameters of solar radiation, a study was conducted in which the color properties of the radiation as well as the radiation intensity were handled and the data obtained were explained. Despite the increase in the radiative energy ratio in the color wavelengths close to blue, it was explained that less photovoltaic energy production was caused by less light flux of the photovoltaic panels.
