The only power derating for off-boresight pointing of a PV array I am aware of is the cosine effect (as the array points away from the sun, the generated power should drop off with the cosine of this off-boresight pointing angle, on-boresight being pointed straight at the sun).
Does anyone know if there are any other effects that would contribute to this off-boresight power derating, such as some silicon-related effects, glass refraction-related effects, etc, arising from some other properties of the solar panels?
I am only talking about these effects due to off-boresight pointing of the PV array, not about the power-altering effects that exist all the time (ex. dirty panels, shading, temperature effects, etc).
