Study of structural and microstructural degradation of materials used in solar

Abstract

In recent years, scientists and researchers have focused very much on the rise of renewable energies of all kinds, especially solar energy, and Adrar is considered among the best regions in the world that have the appropriate conditions for solar energy production, but the solar panels that are used in the conversion and production of electrical energy are exposed to damage with time by influence of external factors such as wind and heat, and this causes a deterioration in the level of energy production. During this research, we will focus on the microscopic causes of the types of degradation that affect the components of solar panels, we do this microscopic study based on XRD and electrical resistance (ER).
