A Simulation Study of Reconfigurable Modules for Higher Yields in Partially Shaded PV Systems

Photovoltaic systems in urban environments are usually partially shaded, thus the need for shade tolerant solar panels in the urban environment. We present the design of a series-parallel reconfigurable photovoltaic module. Given a specific irradiance distribution on its surface, it can change the interconnections between its solar cells to maximize the output power. First, we analyze the main trade-offs involved in the design of such module; then we propose an algorithm to choose the optimal module configuration; finally, we simulate the performance of different solar module architectures inferring the potential gain in annual energy yield.
