One of the most popular renewable power generation technologies in use today is solar photovoltaic (PV) technology. In this essay, the efficiency of PV panels at three separate Indian locations—Mathura, Ladakh, and Bikaner—is compared for some of the same environmental variables at the same time and place. To get the necessary voltage at the load side, a boost converter is integrated with the PV panel. To test and track changes in parameters of the panel and at the load, the simulation model is simulated using simulation software for various solar irradiation and temperature. The existing panel’s efficiency will change after these numbers are obtained. The impact of high cell temperature and solar irradiation is shown based on the previously determined values of performance parameters for the panel. The values of the performance parameters will also be used to determine the size of the PV Panel and the area needed for it to generate 1 Kilo watt. Observations for various environmental circumstances will be recorded.
