Radiated electromagnetic emission of photovoltaic systems, for example, adversely impacting radiocommunication, can pose a major barrier against further increase in photovoltaic penetration. This is particularly the case near sensitive infrastructure and activities such as hospitals, airports, search and rescue, and military. To understand the impact of each component and installation detail, we performed systematic radiated electromagnetic emission measurements on comparable commercial photovoltaic systems in the frequency range 150 kHz to 30 MHz. Our measurements indicate that string inverters are unlikely to interfere with radiocommunication when installed according to recommended standards, rules, guidelines, and regulations. It was shown that module-level power optimizers are the main cause of high levels of radiated emissions. The frameless bifacial module showed higher levels of radiated emissions than the monofacial module with frame. Changes in cable management and earthing have less impact on radiated emissions than the choice of solar inverter concept and module type.
