The interaction between magnets and solar panels is minimal because solar panels generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect, which is unaffected by magnetic fields. The flow of electricity in a solar panel involves the movement of electrons, but this movement is driven by light energy, not magnetic fields.
The Earth's magnetic field affects solar panel performance in the same manner fields from power lines, transformers and other electrical equipment can. Researchers at the Multimedia University of Kenya have claimed this effect occurs during periods of normal polarity between reversals.
A static magnetic field can significantly affect the performance of a solar panel. According to scientists, it can cause considerable variations in the panel's voltage and current parameters, fill factor, maximum power, and conversion efficiency. These changes are due to the 'Hall effect'.
Installed solar PV modules are usually subjected to varying ambient magnetic field. According to Maus et al. [13 ], the total magnetic field (total intensity) on the earth's surface ranges from 22000 nano-Tesla (nT) to 67000 nT, and this range has been valid since 2015.
Researchers in Kenya say the geomagnetic field could reduce solar panel conversion efficiency 0.21% between the equator and a 50-degree latitude. Their analysis showed the complex
