In this Letter, the authors present a new analytical method for determining the parameter values for the single-diode model of photovoltaic (PV) panels. More specifically, the authors propose explicit equations for all the parameters of the model so that their values can be directly extracted from the data provided in the PV panel datasheet. The results show that the proposed method provides smaller errors between the calculated and experimental I–V curves than other analytical approaches.
