Inspection of Back-Contacted Modules Using a Conductive Backsheet Approach: Cooperative Research and Development (Final Report)

Abstract

This work will focus on analysis of defects in modules fabricated using a conductive backsheet. While most defect types are known, reasonable methods for easily detecting manufactured defects are still relatively unknown.

Dronebase Photovoltaic (PV) Fleet Imagery Quantitative Evaluation (CRADA CRD-22-22941 Final Report)

Combine the Dronebase aerial imagery with corresponding sites in the NLR Photovoltaic (PV) Fleets database. By combining these two data sources in an aggregated, anonymized fashion, we can perform the following analyses: quantifying power loss due to outages caused by stuck trackers, string outages, and shading/snow, validate site metadata, including tilt and azimuth, and correlate.
