Uniform shading occurs when an entire solar panel is shaded by something like clear glass or plastic that allows some light to pass through. Another example of uniform shading would be solar panels operating on a cloudy day. Although cloud cover reduces the energy efficiency of solar cells, they can still produce energy.
A typical concern for solar PV system owners is whether or not shading will affect the performance of their panels, and how much impact shading will have on their system''s production. Here is what you need to know. Shading has a big effect on solar panels'' performance, and how much power they will produce over the course of the day.
When even one solar cell is shaded—by a leaf, tree, bird droppings, or a nearby structure—the entire module’s output can drop sharply. This is because most solar panels connect cells in series, meaning: Current flows through each cell in a chain. If one cell’s current drops, the entire string’s current drops.
Bypass diodes are the key to building anti-shade solar panels. These electronic components are installed across groups of cells inside a panel. What they do: When cells are fully illuminated: diodes are inactive. When some cells are shaded: diodes activate, allowing current to bypass the shaded cells.
