Advancing renewable energy solutions requires efficient and durable solar Photovoltaic (PV) modules. A novel mechanism based on Deep Learning (DL) and Residual Network (ResNet) for accurate cracking detection using Electroluminescence (EL) images of PV panels is proposed in this paper.
One method for solar PV module detection is the physics-based approach. Solar radiation interacts differently with each of earth's surfaces (land, water, atmosphere) . Each surface material has its unique spectral signature that is provided in imagery spectroscopy data .
The detection of cracks in PV panels is a difficult task, as PV panels are brittle and need careful inspection. Although these cracks are often detected using methods such as Electroluminescence (EL) imaging, advanced image processing techniques are needed for proper classification and quantification of the defects identified.
