Description

Solar energy generation in tropical climate system is said to be a viable project because of the availability of solar radiation. The use of solar photovoltaic (PV) panel in the research area is encouraging at the moment but the issue has been that the lifespan of the PV panel is somewhat very low. This research aims to determine the solar radiation model for Lagos to enhance the optimization of the production of solar PV panels for Lagos Nigeria. This would enhance higher patronage in the commercial hub of Nigeria. (paper)
