Photovoltaic panels characterization and experimental testing

In the current work, we have analyzed the modeling in MATLAB Script similator and the electrical characterization of photovoltaic (PV) panels currently commercialized. By taking account the electrical characteristics provided by the supplier. Using the MATLAB Script simulator we deduce the optimal electrical quantities of the PV panel (current, voltage and power) according to the variable climatic conditions (irradiation and temperature). In our case, we have chosen the panel ZT180S, we have deduced from the analysis of the results of its electrical characterization that its optimal electrical quantities are 5% lower than those deduced by the electrical characteristics supplied by the manufacturer. Finaly, the model has been validated with experemental data of a commercial PV module, ZYTECH 180S.
