Abstract
In this paper, an attempt is made to evaluate the effect of colors of light on the performance of solar photovoltaic module. A case study is conducted to experimentally verify the effect of various color filters on the performance of Solar panel at Energy Centre, MANIT, Bhopal, India. Based on the temperature of the cell, solar irradiance and photonic theory, the efficiency and power output of the PV system have been evaluated. An analytical model based on physical parameters is also developed to evaluate the efficiency of solar panel. The results show that the present day PV technology is influenced by the red color of light. In other words, visible portion of the solar spectrum influences the performance of the solar panel then the infra red light.
