Degree of boost appears to be correlated with peak q. Differential for commercial modules went negative at high AOI. Differential for one module showed a dip at intermediate AOI, 35°.

For 10° Tilt, Winter gains up to 1 are observed.

This may negate gains seen at higher angles. Differential Analysis can be extended to demonstrate effectiveness of different ARCs in different deployment scenarios Of the scenarios investigated, 10° Fixed Tilt benefitted the most from good ARCs and Single Axis Trackers benefitted the least. Reminder Gains or losses in Incident Angle response due to an ARC are IN ADDITION TO gains in normal transmission 21 Thank Youbhkingsandia.gov
