The LCOE, or levelled cost of energy, enables the average cost of generating electricity over the lifetime of a facility to be estimated. Find out how it is calculated and which variables influence the LCOE of an energy project.
Albedo is the ability of a surface to reflect solar radiation. In the photovoltaic sector, this parameter is particularly relevant for bifacial modules, as the radiation reflected by the ground can increase the irradiance reaching their rear side.
A photovoltaic string is a set of solar modules connected in series to generate direct current electricity. Find out how it works, its configuration, its relationship with the MPPT, and the key criteria for sizing it correctly.
