摘要

The implementation of photovoltaic solar parks has experienced significant growth in recent years and is expected to continue to do so in the coming years. This is why many scientists and manufacturers are increasingly developing more efficient and durable photovoltaic modules. To complement and achieve maximum sunlight capture, the panels must be positioned in an optimal orientation using support structures that are resistant to harsh weather conditions for long periods of time, leading to the onset of corrosion. The speed with which this process begins depends on both the internal characteristics of the material and the environment to which it is exposed. The objective of this work is to evaluate general aspects of corrosion, the types of corrosion that may occur, the factors that accelerate this process, the classification of environments in Cuba, and possible alloys to use in these types of environments.
