Solar Power Generation and Energy Storage

This chapter presents the important features of solar photovoltaic (PV) generation and an overview of electrical storage technologies. The basic unit of a solar PV generation system is a solar cell, which is a P‐N junction diode. The power electronic converters used in solar systems are usually DC‐DC converters and DC‐AC converters. Either or both these converters may be

Solar power generation by PV (photovoltaic) technology: A review

For the generation of electricity in far flung area at reasonable price, sizing of the power supply system plays an important role. Photovoltaic systems and some other renewable energy systems are, therefore, an excellent choices in remote areas for low to medium power levels, because of easy scaling of the input power source [6], [7].The main attraction of the PV

Large-scale PV power generation in China: A grid parity and

But the subsidies of public sectors on PV technology are not as critical to the long-term potential for cost reduction [62]. At a minimum, it requires back-up power generation since energy storage devices are insufficient to meet demand when solar resources are unavailable. Grid-connected PV systems are considered a promising way to

The impacts of generation efficiency and economic performance

According to the IEA [17] scenario, under sustainable development goals, new energy electricity production should advance rapidly over the next six years to overtake coal and account for two-thirds of the world''s electricity supply by 2040. Among them, solar photovoltaic and wind power should account for more than 40%, hydropower and biomass power
