Documents, reports (5)

D3.1 Data collection infrastructure ICT and data base

D3.1 is linked with Task 3.1:Develop the data collection infrastructure and framework in PV reliability on islands and Task 3.2: Technologies deployment in PV reliability. This deliverable will describe the setting up of the Maltese data collection infrastructure and framework in PV reliability on islands, including open research policies related to and access to the platform. A profile for each test site during the programme is included.

D3.2 Data collection points (PV sites), technologies and monitoring

D3.2 is linked with Task 3.3: Research Data Collection and Analysis. This deliverable will create the guide for research-based data collection and analysis including system metadata, location and configuration of the PV installation, PV modules data, monitoring data during operation, and maintenance corrective and preventive operations performed. as well as environmental data irradiance (possibly also spectrally resolved or cloud pictures), airborne particles (PM2.5,10) concentration, wind speed and direction, ambient temperature and modules temperature, electrical yield values or even IV-curves fromdetailed measurement. It will form the basis for a research data management system on the topic.

D2.4 Outreach and influence mid-term report

D2.4 is linked with Task 2.2 Outreach and influencing activities and tools. An outreach and influence report of the implemented communication tools and strategies will be produced as mid-term reported in D2.4 (M18) with a final reporting in (D2.5) M34.
