Light- and elevated temperature-induced degradation impact on bifacial modules using accelerated aging tests, electroluminescence, and photovoltaic plant modeling

Julien Dupuis et al.

Summary: The authors report on the impact of light- and elevated temperature-induced degradation (LeTID) on bifacial photovoltaic modules and its potential effects on photovoltaic plants performance.
