Abstract

The demand increase for the energy and the world’s challenge to decrease the consummation of fossil fuels has oriented many research works toward the development and investigation in the renewable energy sources (RES) like solar energy. In fact, an adequate parametrisation of the performance of photovoltaic (PV) modules starts by their characterisation. In this study we focus on measuring the current-voltage (I-V) and power-voltage (P-V) curves for two types of PV modules – Monocrystalline and Amorphous that were tested under different temperature. A developed low-cost acquisition device based on Arduino board is used to monitor and trace those data. The performance and the quality of this later is analysed in term of solar panel characteristics and show that the developed acquisition device is especially suitable for amorphous (PV) modules.
