The integration of renewable energy (RE) sources is increasing day by day because of their
permanent existence and the limited quantities of fossil fuels. One of the most promising RE …

Lightning and lightning induced effects have significant influence on many aspects affecting
the public, which makes the research of lightning and lightning protection very important …

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are susceptible to lightning strikes. During a lightning strike, an
induced overvoltage is generated in the PV system. This overvoltage can damage the …

Solar photovoltaic (PV) farms currently play a vital role in the generation of electrical power
in different countries, such as Malaysia, which is moving toward the use of renewable …

With increased electrical energy demands projected in the future, the development of a
hybrid solar photovoltaic (PV)–battery energy storage system is considered a good option …

The lightning protection of photovoltaic installations is of great importance, in order to
warrant the uninterrupted operation of the system and avoid faults and damages of the …

Lightning transient effects on a hybrid 4.1 MW PV–wind system were investigated in this
work by using PSCAD/EMTDC software. A simulation was performed with real lightning …

Photovoltaic (PV) systems are subject to nearby lightning strikes that can contribute to
extremely high induced overvoltage transients. Recently, the authors introduced a 3D semi …

In the present work, the impact of standard impulse lightning voltage strikes (1.2/50 μs) on
the performance of single-crystalline silicon photovoltaic modules (whose construction has …

The induced current in the buried cable shield is evaluated by solving the full-wave Maxwell
equations with the Finite Element Method (FEM). Three different cases are considered for …
