Abstract: The use of photovoltaic power plants is rapidly expanding, despite the continued growth in the production of traditional mineral resources. This paper analyses photovoltaic panels (PVP) in order to identify the best values of their various nominal (rated) parameters in terms of lifetime and efficiency. The authors have created a database of one-sided PVPs from 100 to 450 W power range, which includes PVPs from 72 manufacturing companies around the world. The paper analyzes 1300 mono- and polycrystalline, heterostructural and thin-film PVPs. The following PVP parameters were analyzed: efficiency, temperature coefficients of power, short circuit current, open circuit voltage, square per power, mass per power, number of cells, operating temperature and lifetime. The results obtained can be widely applied in simulating the operating modes of photovoltaic power plants and will improve the accuracy of feasibility studies of the implementation of autonomous power supply systems.
