Individual energetic processes efficiencies in a polycrystalline silicon PV cell versus electromagnetic field

Abstract The Photovoltaic (PV) system is often installed near the telecommunication antenna without takes account the performance degradation that the electromagnetic field can cause. The present work provides the recognition about the greatest losses occur which can cause the overall efficiency drop. In fact, the absorption and the thermodynamic processes are more sensitive to the variation of the electromagnetic field more than FF and thermalization processes in presence of the electromagnetic field. The absorption and thermodynamic mechanism are the main cause of the degradation of the polycrystalline silicon PV cell outputs. The PV cell having height base doping level to get a better resistivity to the electromagnetic field must be chosen to improve theses outputs. Then a low electromagnetic field zones must be searched to install the PV system improving its electrical production performance.
