The Data-Enabled Photovoltaics Group at UCF is currently looking for undergraduate researchers to assist with state-of-the-art research in the area of photovoltaics. Solar photovoltaics (PV) has rapidly grown into a multi-billion-dollar per year industry in large part due to improvements in performance and reliability. At the Florida Solar Energy Center, a UCF research institute, we use a state-of-the-art, comprehensive suite of tools to study PV panel reliability on traditional and novel technologies. We are looking for two students to assist in measuring PV panels using UV fluorescence imaging, electroluminescence imaging, IR imaging, and current-voltage flash testing, and analyzing data. <\/p>\n

There is the potential for compensation through the Florida Work Experience Program (FWEP) and summer fellowship opportunities. Flexible scheduling and hybrid work opportunities are provided.<\/p>\n

Tasks
\n\u2022\tUse a browser-based tool to annotate features in UV fluorescence images of solar PV cells
\n\u2022\tPerform analyses on a variety of measurement data using Python
\n\u2022\tPerform measurements on PV panels
\n\u2022\tOccasional presentation of analyses to project teams<\/p>\n

Requirements
\n\u2022\tTravel to the Florida Solar Energy Center for a minimum of one day per week
\n\u2022\tEmployee must be able to lift 50 lbs<\/p>\n

Preferences
\n\u2022\tPython experience
\n\u2022\tLabVIEW experience<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":915,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"_members_access_role":[],"_members_access_error":""},"researchcategory":[5,7,10,12],"locations":[26],"mentoring":[35,41,37,36,40],"class_list":["post-10522","research","type-research","status-publish","hentry","researchcategory-cs","researchcategory-eng","researchcategory-ids","researchcategory-ps","locations-cocoa","mentoring-hin","mentoring-irc","mentoring-mcir","mentoring-rmp","mentoring-surf"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nResearcher in Solar Energy Technologies - Undergraduate Research<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/academicsuccess.ucf.edu\/our\/research\/researcher-in-solar-energy-technologies\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Researcher in Solar Energy Technologies - Undergraduate Research\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The Data-Enabled Photovoltaics Group at UCF is currently looking for undergraduate researchers to assist with state-of-the-art research in the area of photovoltaics.
