Abstract
Scientific research and development in solar cell systems are often focused on studies that include radiation availability, some effective operating strategies, and re-engineering of these systems. In Iraq in particular, the experience of using solar energy systems is almost new to be used to provide clean energy. Therefore, it was necessary when installing solar energy systems in Kirkuk governorate in Iraq, especially in the Department of Electronics and Control Engineering in the Kirkuk Engineering Technical College, that the performance of these cells or systems should be examined and measured, especially that the department made full use of solar energy. The electrical performance of photovoltaic panels has been experimentally studied for the effect of dust particles deposited, as well as when there is fog and when there is bright sun and for several consecutive days. The energy efficiency and energy output of the photovoltaic system are calculated based on experimental data. The conclusion is that dust significantly reduces the efficiency of photovoltaic solar panels.
