AB Affordable and clean energy is one of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG). SDG compliance and economic crises have boosted investment in solar energy as an important source of renewable generation. Nevertheless, the complex maintenance of solar plants is behind the increasing trend to use advanced artificial intelligence techniques, which critically depend on big amounts of data. In this work, a model based on Deep Convolutional Generative Adversarial Neural Networks (DCGANs) was trained in order to generate a synthetic dataset made of 10,000 electroluminescence images of photovoltaic cells, which extends a smaller dataset of experimentally acquired images. The energy output of the virtual cells associated with the synthetic dataset is predicted using a Random Forest regression model trained from real IV curves measured on real cells during the image acquisition process. The assessment of the resulting synthetic dataset gives an Inception Score of 2.3 and a Fréchet Inception Distance of 15.8 to the real original images, which ensures the excellent quality of the generated images. The final dataset can thus be later used to improve machine learning algorithms or to analyze patterns of solar cell defects.
