Spectroradiometry is a key metrological topic for accurate testing of photovoltaic (PV) devices, particularly relevant both for indoor testing on solar simulators and for outdoor testing. The relevance of accurate measurements of solar spectral irradiance has led the most renowned European solar PV test centres to take part to a series of International Spetroradiometer Intercomparisons that has taken place every year so far since 2011 in various localities in the Mediterranean Basin. This paper revisits the performance of participant laboratories and highlights the importance of inter-laboratory comparisons, showing the possible improvements in measurement reproducibility. © 2018 IEEE.

Abstract
Spectroradiometry is a key metrological topic for accurate testing of photovoltaic (PV) devices, particularly relevant both for indoor testing on solar simulators and for outdoor testing. The relevance of accurate measurements of solar spectral irradiance has led the most renowned European solar PV test centres to take part to a series of International Spetroradiometer Intercomparisons that has taken place every year so far since 2011 in various localities in the Mediterranean Basin. This paper revisits the performance of participant laboratories and highlights the importance of inter-laboratory comparisons, showing the possible improvements in measurement reproducibility. © 2018 IEEE.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
