Abstract
A system reconfigures a photovoltaic array used in solar energy based on observed shading conditions to determine an optimal topology of the photovoltaic array to maximize power output. Specifically, the system is designed to reconfigure a photovoltaic array when the photovoltaic array is partially shaded. The system uses a neural network model to determine a topology that maximizes power output of the photovoltaic array based on irradiance data obtained from the photovoltaic array.
