About Photovoltaic Energy Storage1. Introduction Module temperature is an important factor that influences the power produced by a photovoltaic system (Ye et al., 2013, Lobera and Valkealahti, 2013).Typically, a crystalline silicon module loses about 4% of its power output for every 10 C raise in module temperature. C raise in module temperature.
