This study analyzes the performance of two PV modules, amorphous silicon (a-Si) and crystalline silicon (c-Si) and predicts energy yield, which can be seen as facilitation to achieve the target of 35% reduction of greenhouse gases emission by 2030. Malaysia Energy Commission recommends crystalline PV modules for net energy metering (NEM), but the climate regime is a concern for output power and efficiency. Based on rainfall and irradiance data, this study aims to categorize the climate of peninsular Malaysia into rainy and dry seasons; and then the performance of the two modules are evaluated under the dry season.

This paper considers the potential of CMOS-based nanopore measurement systems for high-speed molecular recording and DNA sequencing in particular. As such it approximates the signal fidelity limitations of a CMOS-based nanopore readout channel and discusses the means by which throughput could be increased through the use of a parallel CMOS readout system.
