COVID -19 Pandemic Effect on the Solar Irradiance: Case Study Ma`an Development Area
Authors: ,
Abstract: Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Panels are converting solar radiation into an electrical form of energy, the performance, and efficiency of PV Panels are affected by several factors including environmental factors represented by air pollutants) typically includes PM10, fine PM2.5, NOx, Sox, and dust), as many studies have found that the efficiency of PV panels cell decrease when the concentration of air pollutant increase, in these study Air pollutant concentration and solar radiation data, were collected during the COVID-19 Pandemic, the result showed that a huge decrease in air pollutant concertation in Jordanian cities and slightly change in the percentage of solar radiation in study area MDA, the recommend to do the study again in an industrial or densely populated area, where pollution rates will be greater, which means a greater impact on the efficiency of solar PV Panels.
