Solar photovoltaic (PV) is a crucial renewable energy source in the fight against carbon dioxide emissions, aligning well with growing energy demands. However, solar PV efficiency naturally degrades over time, primarily due to uncontrollable outdoor factors such as irradiance, humidity, shading, soiling, aging, and temperature. These collectively lead to …
