Abstract
In the present communication, a comparative study has been carried out by considering three different photovoltaic module technologies where silicon monocrystalline based PV cells have been used. In this study, the power and electrical energy have been compared for semitransparent, opaque and bifacial photovoltaic module with a number of cells having 36 cells except bifacial. Bifacial module has 36 cells on front and 36 cells on the back also. Such 36 cells based semitransparent and opaque PV module are eligible to generate 75 Wp. The area of all considered PV modules is 1 m2. After evaluation the results, it is found that the maximum electrical energy and power has been obtained for bifacial PV module to others due to double area of PV cells on module whereas minimum has been obtained for opaque due to higher solar cell temperature. The electrical energy obtained from bifacial module is found 159% and 107% higher than opaque and semitransparent, respectively.KeywordsSilicon cellsPV technologyBifacial moduleEnergyPower
