Notice: As of 2014 and for the forthcoming years, the publication frequency/periodicity of WSEAS Journals is adapted to the 'continuously updated' model. What this means is that instead of being separated into issues, new papers will be added on a continuous basis, allowing a more regular flow and shorter publication times. The papers will appear in reverse order, therefore the most recent one will be on top.

ABSTRACT: The paper deals with atmospheric effects which have a negative effect on the production of electricity using photovoltaic panels. Especially on the cloudiness and its composition which affects the production of electricity in various ways. The introductory part of the paper is focused on atmospheric processes that lead to the formation of clouds, and cloudiness and its basic division. In the next part, the system that was used in the research, and also the methodology of collecting and analyzing measured data is described. The last part of the paper summarizes the experimental results of the research.

KEYWORDS: solar energy; efficiency; atmosphere; production; electricity; photovoltaic system; cloudiness
