The main purpose of this work is to measure the environmental parameters as well as studying their effects on the photovoltaic (PV) performance. The book introduces an overview about the weather stations' features, main types, and their constituent components. It also presents and develops the mathematical modeling and simulation of a generalized PV model. The developed PV model is designed by using MATLAB/Simulink software that enables the PV system designers to easily study the affect of the environmental conditions on the PV performance. It can also estimate the different maximum power...
