Photovoltaic power generation is one of the most important and basic sources of renewable energy. Photovoltaic power generation is a technology that directly converts light energy into electrical energy by utilizing the photovoltaic effect of the semiconductor interface. The main components are controllers, inverters and solar panels (components).
Substantial progress has been made in the area of solar power generation and application covering analysis, simulation, and hardware development and testing for efficiency maximization and cost minimization.
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). The research has been underway since very beginning for the development of an affordable, in-exhaustive and clean solar energy technology for longer term benefits.
This paper reviews the progress made in solar power generation by PV technology. Performance of solar PV array is strongly dependent on operating conditions. Manufacturing cost of solar power is still high as compared to conventional power.
In 1893, the photovoltaic (PV) effect was discovered; after many decades, scientists developed this technology for electricity generation . Based on that, after many years of research and development from scientists worldwide, solar energy technology is classified into two key applications: solar thermal and solar PV.
PV technology development does not follow the well-know “generations” path. PV technology development is so far characterized by an evolutionary process. Wafer-silicon and thin-film technologies merge to yield the next step in PV. Photovoltaic solar energy (PV) is expected to play a key role in the future global sustainable energy system.
