    Keywords : PV spectral response.; radiative transfer model; spectral mismatch factor; spectral irradiance; Solar tracking; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : Conventional photovoltaic solar tracking is commonly done by aligning the surface normal of a PV module with the direction from which direct solar irradiation is coming from. While this tracking design has proven to perform well in sunny climates, solar tracking is altogether less common in northern climates where the direct solar irradiance is weaker. READ MORE
