Requesting feedback on Sandia’s PV Performance Modeling Idea No. 5: Develop models for tandem-cell modules #2364
Description
As part of the Sandia’s PV Performance Modeling program (https://pvpmc.sandia.gov/), we are sharing our model development ideas to seek feedback based on relevance, importance, and potential impact.
Your input will help us prioritize our efforts for fiscal years 2025-2027. Any model developments from our PV Performance Modeling program will be validated, documented in peer-reviewed articles, and made available in pvlib-python. If you are already working on a similar idea, please reach out—we would love to collaborate!
Idea No 5. Develop models for tandem-cell modules. Silicon/perovskite tandem cells have made dramatic gains in efficiency and are being commercialized by several companies. PV performance models for tandem-cell modules are not available in pvlib.
