Abstract [eng] This thesis examines the key characteristics of bifacial photovoltaic modules and their areas of applications, and explores the operating principles of bifacial photovoltaic modules as well as methods for optimizing their efficiency metrics. A complex MATLAB model of a bifacial photovoltaic module has been designed, which processes the input variable data and simulates the module operating under realistic conditions, along with its characteristics, based on a specified time series of variable data. Most scientific studies characterize surfaces only by the overall albedo coefficient, without performing a detailed analysis of the surface color of the module, which can influence reflection onto the rear side of the photovoltaic module and affect the energy efficiency of the entire panel. The study investigates how theoretical, assumed primary colors and albedo values described in practice and theory, expressed through the color spectrum, affect the various efficiency characteristics of the selected photovoltaic module. Results obtained across different seasonal time periods are compared, and the results of albedo simulations for 20 different colors are analyzed to determine which colors and in which patterns are most beneficial.
