Definition and decision context
Definition
NREL reports low-irradiance losses of photovoltaic modules as a module-efficiency behavior considered in PV energy-performance analysis.
Verified August 28, 2026
Why it matters
NREL’s low-irradiance analysis treats the loss as module-dependent, not as proof of a particular system’s production advantage.
