Resumo: | At the same time that the growth of solar photovoltaic energy reaches hundreds of gigawatts installed around the world, the reliability of the modules can be a key factor to maintain the viability of the technology. This work describes the state of two photovoltaic installations located at LABSOL (Laboratory of Solar Energy at UFRGS). The first installation has been in operation for fifteen years and the most recent for three years. To carry out this evaluation some techniques are applied such as the records of visual inspections, electroluminescence images, thermographic analyzes and mostly results of the electrical characterization of the behavior of the I-V curve, thus revealing the degradation of the modules. Despite the damage revealed in this work, it can be said that the systems continue to operate within expectations. The rate of power degradation for the oldest system was 0.7% per year in the three-year installation, a minimal visual effect of the action of the environment was observed, resulting in a rate of degradation of 0.85% per year. |

Este trabalho descreve o estado de duas instalações fotovoltaicas situadas no LABSOL (Laboratório de Energia Solar da UFRGS). A primeira instalação funciona há quinze anos e a mais recente, há três. Para realizar esta avaliação aplicam-se algumas técnicas, destacando-se os registros de inspeções visuais, de imagens de eletroluminescência, de análises termográficas e principalmente resultados da caracterização elétrica do comportamento da curva I?V, revelando então a degradação dos materiais que compõe os módulos. A pesar dos danos revelados neste trabalho, se pode afirmar que os sistemas continuam operando dentro das expectativas. A taxa de degradação da potência para o sistema mais antigo foi de 0,7% ao ano. Na instalação de três anos, observou-se mínimo efeito visual da ação do ambiente, resultando taxa de degradação de 0,85% ao ano.Universidade Federal de Viçosa - UFV2022-09-13info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo, Manuscrito, Eventosapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/jcec/article/view/1467010.18540/jcecvl8iss6pp14670-01iThe Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; Vol. 8 No. 6 (2022); 14670-01iThe Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; Vol. 8 Núm. 6 (2022); 14670-01iThe Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; v. 8 n. 6 (2022); 14670-01i2527-1075reponame:The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciencesinstname:Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)instacron:UFVporhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/jcec/article/view/14670/7472Copyright (c) 2022 The Journal of Engineering and Exact Scienceshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFonseca, José Eduardo Ferreira da Oliveira, Fernando Schuck dePrieb, César Wilhelm MassenKrenzinger, Arno 2022-09-29T16:49:34Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufv.br:article/14670Revistahttp://www.seer.ufv.br/seer/rbeq2/index.php/req2/oai2527-10752527-1075opendoar:2022-09-29T16:49:34The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences - Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)false |
