[IEEE 2019 International Conference on Smart Energy Systems and Technologies (SEST) - Porto, Portugal (2019.9.9-2019.9.11)] 2019 International Conference on Smart Energy Systems and Technologies (SEST) - Modular Architecture with Power Optimizers for Photovoltaic Systems
摘要: Solutions that increase ef?ciency in renewable energy are important for environmental sustainability. In this way, dealing with photovoltaic generation a new architecture constituted by power optimizer for photovoltaic systems emerges. Power optimizer is a DC/DC converter, allocated to each one or two photovoltaic modules, that tries to reduce losses in photovoltaic systems, increasing the photovoltaic power generation. Thus, this paper presents the architecture used in a photovoltaic system with power optimizer and a performance simulation for application in a residence and a photovoltaic plant. Thus, it is possible to measure the gain provided by power optimizer in simulated systems. As a result, the application of the photovoltaic system in residence provided better performance than the application in the photovoltaic plant, due to the greater frequency of shading in the photovoltaic modules. Therefore, power optimizer for photovoltaic systems is a solution that can be considered, mainly with the reduction of the cost of power electronics in the future.

Efficient stable graphene-based perovskite solar cells with high flexibility in device assembling <i>via</i> modular architecture design
摘要: Carbon-based perovskite solar cells (C-PSCs) are emerging as low-cost stable photovoltaics. However, their power conversion efficiency (PCE) still lags behind that of devices based on Au or Ag as the current collector. Here, we introduced an innovative modular PSC design using a carbon back electrode, whose sheet resistance and thickness were greatly reduced by covering it with another carbon-coated FTO glass that was applied under pressure. We showed that these two individual elements could be assembled and separated repeatedly. Moreover, among the various commercial carbon sources (carbon black, graphite sheet, and graphene), graphene exhibited the best overall performance, showing the crucial importance of graphene as a charge collector. Power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 18.65% was achieved for graphene-based PSCs (G-PSCs), which was among the highest efficiency reported so far for C-PSCs. Moreover, the optimized devices without encapsulation retained 90% of their initial PCE after aging at an elevated temperature of 85 1C for 1000 h. Remarkably, G-PSCs showed significant structural flexibility; there was negligible degradation in PCE after repeated disassembling and assembling for more than 500 cycles. Our system provides a promising prospect for the facile repair and maintenance of PSCs via modular interconnections; related strategies may be extended to other devices.
