Renewable Energy - Solar Energy Production Efficiency

by Madalena Marselli

Submitted : Spring 2019

Finding the integral of a function can approximate the area under the curve on a graph. This can be applied to solar irradiance curves to estimate how much energy a solar panel produces over a period of time. This energy can then be compared to the energy produced by the direct beam of sunlight to optimize the angle of attack of the panel.
