A discretization of the rear side of the bifacial modules allows a further investigation of mismatching and losses due to inhomogeneous radiation distribution. The model is validated, showing a deviation of -1.25 \% to previous simulation models and giving hourly resolvedoutput data with a higher accuracy than existing software for bifacial PV systems.}, language = {en} }
