Using solar power to tackle poverty alleviation in low-middle income countries is a growing field of research. Urgent efforts are required to reduce the cost of renewable energy in order to tackle the worst effects of climate change. The fastest growing renewable energy technology is photovoltaics (PV), which will account for 30% of the global power generation capacity in the coming decades. In order to integrate solar energy further into our renewable energy mix, understanding the reliability of modules is key. This PhD project is focussed on the modelling of emerging photovoltaic module technologies, including tandems and bifacial modules. This will include engineering outdoor testing stands for experimental validation as well as using our state-of-the-art laboratories and characterisation facilities. The modelling of these modules will take into account environmental factors such as sunlight (angular and spectral distribution) and weather conditions (temperature, humidity, wind etc.), and identify optimal designs of module components and their peripherals to ensure high efficiency.

利用太阳能解决中低收入国家的减贫问题是一个日益增长的研究领域。需要紧急努力降低可再生能源的成本，以应对气候变化的最严重影响。发展最快的可再生能源技术是光伏技术，在未来几十年内将占全球发电量的30%。为了将太阳能进一步整合到我们的可再生能源组合中，了解模块的可靠性是关键。这个博士项目的重点是新兴光伏组件技术的建模，包括串联和双面模块。这将包括用于实验验证的工程室外测试台以及使用我们最先进的实验室和表征设施。这些模块的建模将考虑到环境因素，如阳光（角度和光谱分布）和天气条件（温度、湿度、风等），并确定模块组件及其外围设备的最佳设计，以确保高效率。
