Abstract
The performance parameters of a solar panel are influenced by many factors, including the type of panel, area, solar radiation, ambient temperature, and weather. This study aims to analyse the effect of solar radiation and temperature on the performance of monocrystalline solar panels. This research was located in Palu, one of the cities with high temperatures in tropical Indonesia. The study used 50 Wp PV, which was placed in the eastern Palu area based on the spatial distribution of surface temperature with the highest temperature distribution. Data sampling is 25 times per day from 11:00 am – 03:00 pm. The result is that increased surface temperature of the solar panel impacts the decrease in the output power of the PV. The environmental temperature of 32.87 °C in the East Palu area causes a decrease of PV power by 2.3%.
