Improving photovoltaics performance by using yellow petroleum jelly as phase change material

Indonesia is blessed with solar energy. Photovoltaic (PV) experiences an internal problem of efficiency reduction due to temperature increase. The use of phase change material as a passive cooling has been conducted to address this problem. In this study, yellow petroleum jelly is used as passive cooling on photovoltaic. The jelly performs effectively in reducing the temperature of PV. Therefore, the application of yellow petroleum jelly on PV is proven to suppress PV temperature, increase the efficiency and the power of the PV.
