This paper proposes photovoltaic thermal hybrid module to get the electrical and thermal performance of building integrated photovoltaic(BIPV) system. BIPV system is decreased the system efficiency because output of PV is decreased by the thermal rising on generating. In order to improve the efficiency of BIPV module, water cooling system is applied and generated thermal is used the warm water system. Water cooling system uses the flux control algorithm considering water temperature and power loss. Electrical and thermal performance of proposed photovoltaic thermal hybrid module is confirmed through the actual experiment and herby proved the valid of this paper.

The Photovoltaic systems with solar cell way Provide electrical energy to the utility/consumers, which are becoming one of the promising energy substitutes. The photovoltaic system can be classified into two types : One is the stand-alone type, and the other utility interactive one. The latter can return the generated power to the utility, but the former can't. The utility interactive systems are so valuable for peak power cut in summer season. In the photovoltaic systems the maximum power point tracking (MPPT) has been studied for the increase of the generating energy of the photovoltaic system. There are many control methods of MPPT, but a new MPPT algorithm is proposed to overcome the disadvantages of the conventional ones, and as a result the proposed method enables to improve both tracking ability and generating efficiency of photo voltaic system without DC chopper.

Solar photovoltaic power generation system is judging that by the most suitable new refreshing energy in real condition of our country forward continuously interest for solar photovoltaic power generation system and diffusion me enlarged. Output decline problem is item to consider necessarily and should be verified in continuous interest for solar photovoltaic power generation system are diffusion. Present plan that minimize output decline calculating module liver optimum interval that consider recitation of a poem to reduce output decline by module liver shade by incidence angle consideration and this that occupy most parts among factor because do output of solar photovoltaic power generation system well.

In this paper, the implemented photovoltaic array simulator is the power supply based on a common photovoltaic characteristic. This simulator is consisted of a common DC power supply and PC for controlling output. User can select the number of PV modules and solar radiation energy and then can get output whatever user wants. This simulator is a very helpful system to PV generating test and unexpensive than the existing PV simulators.

The developments of the hybrid energy are necessary since the future alternative energies that have no pollution and no limitation are restricted. Currently power generation system of MW scale has been developed. However, even photovoltaic system cannot always generate stable output with ever-changing weather condition. In this paper, sub power generator for hybrid system(photovoltaic 500[W], wind power generation 400[W]) was suggested. Sub power Generator that uses elastic energy of spiral spring to photovoltaic system was also added for the present system. In an experiment, when output of photovoltaic system gets lower than 24[V] (charging voltage), power was continuously supplied to load through the inverter by charging energy obtained from generating rotary energy of spiral spring operates In DC generator. Also, control algorithm of sub power generator is used genetic algorithm(GA).

PV system is consisted with PV module, inverter and BOS(balance of system). To have robustic operation more than 20 years, the expected and guaranteed durability and reliability of products should be met. Almost components of PV system are qualified through IEC standards at test laboratory. But the qualification certificate of product does not ensure long-term nondefective operation. PV module's expected life time is nowadays more than 20 years and annual maximum power degradation ratio would be less than -1%. But the power degradation ratio is basically based on real data more than several years' record. Developing test method for ensuring annual maximum power degradation ratio is very need because there are many new products every month with new materials. In this paper, we have suggested new test method under continuous artificial light irradiation test condition for analyze expected maximum power drop ratio.

In the PV (Photovoltaic) power system, a junction box collects the DC voltage generated from the PV module and transfers it to the PCS (power conditioning system). The junction box prevents damage caused by the voltage difference between the serially connected PV modules and provides convenience while repairing or inspecting the PV array. In addition, the junction box uses the diode to protect modules from the inverse current when the PV power system and electric power system are connected for use. However, by using the reverse blocking diode, heat is generated within the junction box while generating electric power, which decreases the generating efficiency, and causes short circuit and electric leakage. In this research, based on the purpose of improving the performance of the PV module by decreasing the heat generation within the junction box, a junction box with a built-in bypass circuit was designed/manufactured so that a certain capacity of current generated from the PV module does not run through the reverse blocking diode. The manufactured junction box was used to compare the electric power and heating power generated when the circuit was in the bypass/non-bypass modes. It was confirmed that the electric power loss and heat generation indicated a decrease when the circuit was in the bypass mode.
