Peningkatan Efisiensi Modul Photovoltaic Polikristalin Dan Monokristal Menggunakan Lapisan Multilayer Anti Reflektif Coating Film 3m
Sunlight can be used for the development of solar power plants (PLTS). The photovoltaic (PV) module is the main component of PLTS which can convert sunlight into electrical energy. The efficiency of the PV module can be reduced due to excessive heat from the sun. Therefore, providing an anti-reflective coating (ARC) is one solution to increase the efficiency of PV modules. This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of ARC based on the measurement of characteristic I(V) parameters, namely Isc, Voc, and MPP from 2 (two) PV modules (polycrystalline and monocrystalline). These characteristic parameters are determined by measuring the current and voltage of the PV module by varying the load resistance from 5 to
100 (ohms). PV modules (polycrystalline and monocrystalline) were characterized in three conditions, namely without coating (TC), single coating (SC), and double coating (DC) at three measurement times (at 10.00, 12.00 and 14.00 WIB). Based on the results of characterization I(V), coated PV modules produce greater power and efficiency than those without coatings. This is caused by a decrease in the reflectivity of the glass surface which results in an increase in light absorbance. Based on the variation of measurement time, monocrystalline PV modules that were given a single coating experienced an efficiency increase of 0.4% and monocrystalline PV modules experienced an optimum increase of up to 1.2% at
14.00 WIB. Polycrystalline PV modules that were given a single coating layer experienced an efficiency increase of up to 1.7% and for double coatings the optimum increase of 3.0% at 12.00 WIB. Based on this research, the addition of the ARC layer can increase the efficiency of the PV module in all conditions of measurement time.
