Abstract. The results of simulation modeling for photovoltaic arrays created for the tasks of wireless energy transfer are discussed. Modular scalable arrays, which significantly reduce the length of contact buses and the corresponding losses, have become priorities in the development of switching schemes for individual elements. The losses of the photocurrent during the conversion of spatially inhomogeneous energy-harvesting beams, the variation of the array efficiency with a shift in the center of the beam and the shading of part of the working surface of the array are considered. Simulation models of distributing arrays with translational and rotational symmetry are created, the results of a comparative analysis of the introduced switching losses are presented.

Key words: photovoltaic array, PVC commutation, photoconversion efficiency, xcos simulation models, scattering switching schemes.
