The development of Floating Solar Photovoltaic (FPV) systems is a sign promising future in the Renewable Energy field. Numerous solar modules and inverters are mounted on large-scale floating platforms. It important to design system so that inverter operates its optimum range most time. In order achieve this goal DC side, serial parallel connections used. As result, cabling PV array architectur...

Most existing solar atlases cover a continent or a country with a spatial resolution coherent with such visualization. These atlases generally depict yearly sum of Global Horizontal Irradiation (GHI). Thus they give a good idea of the large scale solar trends, which are particularly suited for an application of identification of wide areas of high solar potential. However, these large scale atl...

We study a model-based approach to detect sustainable faults of photovoltaic systems. We describe models and algorithms which allow us to analyze a large amount of photovoltaic systems. Our approach is based on median regression. We assume that we know the irradiance and produced energy of a photovoltaic system. The particular challenge of the data analysis problem we study here is the possible...

Flexible photovoltaic devices possess promising perspectives in opto-electronic technologies, where high mobility and/or large-scale applicability are important. However, their usefulness in such applications is currently still limited due to the low level of optimization of their performance and durability. For the improvement of these properties, a better understanding and control of small-sc...

Many real-world problems modeled by stochastic games have huge state and/or action spaces, leading to the well-known curse of dimensionality. The complexity of the analysis of large-scale systems is dramatically reduced by exploiting mean field limit and dynamical system viewpoints. Under regularity assumptions and specific time-scaling techniques, the evolution of the mean field limit can be e...

Using Photovoltaic systems is gradually expanded by increasing energy demand. Abundance and availability of this energy, has turned to one of the most important sources of renewable energy. Unfortunately, photovoltaic systems have two big problems: first, those have very low energy conversion efficiency (in act between 12 and 42 percent under certain circumstances). Second, the power produced b...
