Abstract

In order to apply an antireflection coating to a PV panel and increase the solar cell efficiency by producing more voltage, current, and power at the peak power point, a thorough investigation of several chemicals and nano composite materials was carried out (MPP). An improved method of capturing solar energy and converting it into electrical energy, which would lower costs and boost power production, would be indicated by an improvement in solar cell efficiency. Antireflection, surface inactivity and the desired vitality materials band hole alter in an incredibly encouraging way when the nano composite materials are mixed with certain composition of effective chemicals to boost efficiency by coating technique. The gallium chloride nano particle solution will be made thick and applied over the solar panel using brush so that it will be applied uniformly. Monometallic nano particle coating is prepared to apply over the existing polycrystalline solar panel. Synthesis of different natural extract for monometallic nanoparticle is done. The natural extracts used are flower powder, Kailashpati fruit juice, triphala powder, neem powder and jackfruit juice. By the synthesis of these natural extracts, the monometallic nanoparticle such as gallium flower, gallium kailashpati, gallium triphala, gallium neem and gallium jackfruit are used to check its effect over the material efficiency of the existing solar panel. It is a 90% natural process using natural products such as roots, flowers, petals, fruits peels or leaves are utilized. Effect of this thin coating, applied over the existing solar panel is observed. The gallium chloride monometallic nano particle will be applied over the solar panel using spraying technique to check the effect on the solar panel efficiency. Automation in measurement of the power output of the uncoated and coated panel will be implemented. The uncoated and coated panel will be tested under the sunlight throughout the day.
