Germany-based TUV Rheinland has commissioned its solar photovoltaic modules testing facility at Sriperumbudur near here.
TUV Rheinland is a service provider in the technical, inspection and certification industry.
The 5,000 sq. ft. facility established under the project ‘PV Klima’ has been undertaken by TUV Rheinland in collaboration with the German Government to study the climatic factors that have an impact on energy yield of solar photovoltaic modules, the company said in a statement.
TUV Rheinland has also proposed to set up such facilities in Italy, the United States and Saudi Arabia.
“Sriperumbudur will be the latest testing facility under PV Klima to take comparable measurements of energy yields and develop methodologies to forecast and increase the energy yields of solar photovoltaic modules,” TUV Rheinland India Vice-President, Business Stream Products, Kalyan Varma, said.
The features of various solar photovoltaic technologies would be analysed with regard to climate effects, seasonal effects, low-light behaviour and temperature behaviour, he added.
