Low angle solar performance
Has my one seen data on performance by specific panel or general PV type for different incidence angles of solar radiation? All I can find so far is generic info. Jim

I wonder what the effect of adding low transmission loss diffusion to replace the glass cover would have? Since the solar industry generally tilts the panels for permanent installs, I doubt it would be a commercially available product, but for flat mounting on the roofs of a RV would it improve low angle performance?
They do play with a lot of coatings and etching for special situations. I cannot find standards and studies for anything but plate glass. BFL what range of power vs mid day do you see with panels aimed roughly at the sun at 5 degrees before sunset?
