Modular Hybrid Coastal Protection Structure: Pilot site: Montego Bay, Jamaica

Tourism is one of the main sources of income of Jamaica. . However, at the moment the beaches are retreating. An example is the erosion of Hellshire Beach, showing a retreat of ten meters in only seven years. To preserve the beaches effectively, a new concept is requested. The main requirements of the system are wave attenuation and the marine...

Development of Cell to System Annual Energy Yield Toolbox for Bifacial Modules

Accurate Annual Energy Yield (AEY) predictions can mean important savings due to optimization of energy generation for both particular and utility scale PV systems. <br/>However, currently available commercial models fall short to faithfully reproduce complex designs, specially involving bifacial modules, where albedo gains are relevant. <br/...
