The production of PV power depends on different meteorological parameters. Accumulation of dust is one of the factor which reduces the output power. The recent study was done in Tripura, India and there is maximum of 13% and minimum of 9% reduction in efficiency has been observed during the period of experiment.

Abstract


The production of PV power depends on different meteorological parameters. Accumulation of dust is one of the factor which reduces the output power. The recent study was done in Tripura, India and there is maximum of 13% and minimum of 9% reduction in efficiency has been observed during the period of experiment.
