AI-driven enhancements in PV technology AI has transformed the solar energy industry and is becoming a disruptive factor in many adjacent industries . Solar cells use the photovoltaic effect to convert sunlight into electric energy is solar cells .
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). The research has been underway since very beginning for the development of an affordable, in-exhaustive and clean solar energy technology for longer term benefits.
The goal is to get a better understanding of how to apply XAI techniques to solar power generation forecasts and how to interpret "black box" machine learning models for usage in solar power station applications. In this paper, the Long-Short Memory (LSTM) is assumed to be the primary black-box model.
Progress has been made to raise the efficiency of the PV solar cells that can now reach up to approximately 34.1% in multi‐junction PV cells. Electricity generation from concentrated solar technologies has a promising future as well, especially the CSP, because of its high capacity, efficiency, and energy storage capability.
A basic photovoltaic system integrated with utility grid is shown in Fig. 2. The PV array converts the solar energy to dc power, which is directly dependent on insolation. Blocking diode facilitates the array generated power to flow only towards the power conditioner.
The researchers have sought to improve the performance of solar energy systems via applying several AI based metaheuristic methods . Multiple AI algorithms integrated with numerical models have recently been developed and utilized to estimate, predict, and forecast wave characteristics and wave energy resources .
