Abstract

Deep learning is employed to detect defects in photovoltaic (PV) modules in the thesis. Firstly, the thesis introduces related concepts of cracks. Then a convolutional neural network with seven layers is constructed to classify the defective battery panels. Finally, the accuracy of the validation set is 98.35%. Besides, the thesis introduces a method in which a single battery cell can be extracted from the Electro Luminescence (EL) image of the PV module. This method is very suitable for automatic inspection of photovoltaic power plants.
