Revealing the Intrinsic Mechanisms of Hot and Cold Spots within a Locally Shaded Photovoltaic Module Based on Micro-Electrical Characteristics

Hot-spot generation is critical to the performance and lifespan of photovoltaic (PV) modules; however, the underlying mechanisms of hot-spot formation have not been fully elucidated. This work conducted a localized shading test on a PV module, measured the micro-electrical characteristics and temper...
