Energy maximization of Old PV array under discoloration conditions using different interconnection schemes

Discoloration of solar panels is a phenomenon where the color of the panels changes over time due to numerous environmental variables such as temperature, irradiance, and humidity. Discoloration causes a significant impact on the PV performance reduction considering output power. The power degradati...
