Solar Photovoltaics A Review
Abstract
The rise in surface temperature has a negative effect on P.V. module's output. This increase is due to the heat generated during the conversion of sunlight into electricity, which has an impact on the panel's durability, efficiency, and power output. The use of cooling solutions can potentially provide a way to avoid excessive PV panel heating and lower cell temperature. In addition to outlining several practical cooling techniques, this study also identifies next research directions and proposes unique and cutting-edge PV panel cooling solutions. To offer greater understanding and helpful advice for researchers who plan to explore, enhance, or optimize any form of cooling strategies for PV modules, many qualities and capabilities of each cooling strategy are presented. Due to the recent rise in fossil fuel prices and the associated global warming, alternative energy sources that are environmentally friendly have come to the forefront of discussion. Of these, solar photovoltaics is a dependable option to meet the sharp rise in worldwide energy demand. The development of low-cost, powerful solar cells has thus been a primary focus for the scientific community. The most major types of photovoltaic (PV) devices developed in the last six decades will be explored, together with certain novel ideas for high efficiency solar cells, for showing the state-of-the-art in solar PVs.
