Abstract
The number of distributed Photovoltaic (PV) plants that produce electricity has been significantly increased, and issue of monitoringand maintaining a PV plant has become of great importance and involves many challenges as efficiency, reliability, safety, and stability.This paper presents the novel approach to estimate the PV cells degradations with DCNNs. While many studies have performedimages classification, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first exploitation of data acquired with a drone equipped with a thermalinfrared sensor. The experiments on “Photovoltaic images Dataset”, a collected dataset, are presented to show the degradation problemand comprehensively evaluate the method presented in this research. Results in terms of precision, recall and F1-score show theeffectiveness and the suitability of the proposed approach.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
