| Abstract | In recent years, the strategic goals of many countries have included the achievement of high photovoltaic (PV) integration in electrical grids. Therefore, many governments have introduced incentive-based policies in an effort to encourage the private sector to invest in PV-related projects. However, these kinds of projects require a positive net present value (NPV) in order to be sponsored by non-governmental organisations. In this study, the authors investigate the impact of haze on PV systems in Malaysia due to open burning in Sumatra. As a developing country, Malaysia is aiming to increase the installation of renewable-energy (RE) sources, and thus it has implemented a feed-in tariff (FiT) mechanism. As the efficiency of PV cells increases and the cost/Wp decreases with time, the expected NPV, return-on-investment and payback period for PV systems installed in 2015 is expected to be significantly reduced. The FiT rate in Malaysia is significantly higher and the purchase agreement is longer compared with many similar countries; these make Malaysia a preferred choice for PV system investments. However, environmental disturbances such as haze have a negative impact on the yield of PV systems. During the months of September to October 2015, the transboundary haze episode in Kuala Lumpur reduced the power produced from PV systems by 17.8%. This study shows the impact of haze on PV systems, and analyses the effect of haze on the Malaysian RE action plan. This study proposes a method to estimate the reduction in power yield during the haze. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
