Tiwald, Philipp (author)Global warming represents the most significant threat to humankind, making the need for renewable energy more crucial than ever. However, in densely populated areas near the coast, electricity production faces competition from various sectors such as agriculture, housing, and tourism. To address this challenge, one viable solution is to explore...master thesis 2023

van Kouwen, Mathijs (author)In existing standards for photovoltaic (PV) plants, little guidance is provided in the spatial allocation of pyranometers. No universal and easily scalable algorithms exist that help designers of monitoring infrastructure in solar parks choose the most representative positions for irradiance sensors. <br/><br/>To fill this gap, a software tool...master thesis 2023

de Gruijter Eguiluz, Álvaro (author)The purpose of this thesis research was to perform a photovoltaic (PV) performance assessment and comparison between a small-scale land-based PV system and an off-shore off-grid floating PV system. Also from this research design guidelines for off-grid off-shore floating PV systems were developed. The research experiment was carried out in The...master thesis 2023

van Urk, Gijs (author)Short-term solar forecasting is essential for the large-scale application of solar energy and is necessary for the operation of power plants, energy trading, and grid balancing. The main cause of uncertainty in solar forecasting is cloud movement, which can be observed by All-Sky Images. The spatial layout and temporal dynamics of clouds cannot...master thesis 2022

Goswami, Ishan (author)The expansion of urban PV systems brings up the concern that the reflection from PV modules will cause glare to neighbors. In a densely constructed city, glare can occur when you have PV systems installed on the rooftops of low rises where the solar reflections travel to the surrounding high rises. This issue is more detrimental at airports,...master thesis 2022

Meines, Wijnand (author)Bifacial modules are expected to have a 60% share in the PV market, which require spectral irradiance data incident on both sides to optimize the design. Sensors that provide spectrally resolved data are expensive and thus a cost-effective spectrally resolved albedometer was designed in two previous PVMD Master Theses. This albedometer measures...master thesis 2022

Marathe, Shreedatta (author)Changes in social, cultural, and economic paradigms have resulted in a collective shift from rural to urban areas over the last few decades. Cities are expanding to accommodate the ever-increasing population influx in urban areas. New buildings, roads, airports, and harbors are only a small part of urban development. It also includes the use of...master thesis 2022

Monaco, Nicolò (author)The growing global energy demand and correlated rise in carbon emissions are increasing the need of renewable energy sources. This spread requires land to be occupied, competing with other activities such as agriculture and residency. This project can help the spread of photovoltaic (PV) technologies in an environment still little explored: the...master thesis 2022

Rukhshi, Nida (author)Photovoltaic technology has become one of the leading renewable alternatives for energy production. One main factor in the diminished performance of a photovoltaic module is partial shading, due to the resulting mismatch conditions in the module. However, it is difficult to understand how a specific PV module reacts to shading in comparison with...master thesis 2022

Dakessian, Manuel (author)High operating temperatures harm photovoltaic (PV) modules. The increase in temperature of the cells leads to lower open circuit voltage and higher short circuit current ultimately leading to a lower power output due to a negative thermal coefficient. Hence, lowering the temperature of commercial crystalline silicon modules during their...master thesis 2022

de Mooy, Dion (author)In this thesis, a new photovoltaic fault detection and classification method is proposed. It combines the generation of a synthetic photovoltaic training database and the use of a machine learning model to detect and classify faults in small-scale residential PV systems. The database was generated in Matlab, and the machine learning modeling was...master thesis 2022
