Lightning protection in photovoltaic (PV) systems is a critical area of study as these installations are increasingly exposed to atmospheric discharges that can substantially disrupt energy production ...
Residential PV systems are generally installed on the rooftop of residential buildings, with a large metal surface area, higher distance from the ground and an exposed location. Such PV systems are ...
National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) scientists supported by General Electric (GE) and LM Wind Power (a subsidiary of GE) recently reported on a breakthrough in lightning protection technology ...
