Abstract

This article investigates the phenomenon of Potential-Induced Degradation (PID) in photovoltaic systems connected to the grid. The aim is to analyze

 the capacity decrease resulting from high voltage levels used to minimize economic costs. The study focuses on a practical case conducted at Al-Kiswah station in

 

Damascus, characterized by a semi-arid climate. The findings reveal that the capacity decrease due to voltage-induced aging ranges from 9-11%. These results align with the predicted effect of theoretical aging based on a mathematical model employed in the study. The research demonstrates the potential of the model in predicting the impact of PID and facilitating the optimal design of solar energy systems. This study contributes to the understanding of PID and provides valuable insights for enhancing the performance and efficiency of photovoltaic systems in similar environments.
