摘要：

The outdoor performance of photovoltaic (PV) modules is monitored at PG&E's PV Test Facility in San Ramon, CA. This paper evaluates the performance through mid-1989 of commercially available amorphous silicon (a-Si) PV modules manufactured by ARCO Solar, Chronar, Solarex, Sovonics, and Utility Power Group. All of the modules have exhibited efficiency degradation on initial sun exposure. Module efficiencies are initially 5 - 6% and appear to stabilize around 4% after 1 yr of outdoor exposure. The a-Si modules installed in 1985 which initially operated at 5% efficiency have maintained 4% efficiency for the last 3 yrs. © 1990.
