The role and side effects of photovoltaic panels
Although extensive research has been carried out on the environmental impact of PV, but very few studies exist as a review that covers the effect during the whole PV lifetime cycle. Accordingly, this review addresses comprehensively, all the key environmental impacts associated with solar PV power generation.
Although extensive research has been carried out on the environmental impact of PV, but very few studies exist as a review that covers the effect during the whole PV lifetime cycle. Accordingly, this review addresses comprehensively, all the key environmental impacts associated with solar PV power generation.
In the present study, a comprehensive review of the different environmental, operational and maintenance factors affecting the performance of the solar PV modules is performed. The study also identifies the advanced measures to reduce the effects of the factors liable for the degradation of productivity of the solar PV.
The potential environmental impacts associated with solar power—land use and habitat loss, water use, and the use of hazardous materials in manufacturing—can vary greatly depending on the technology, which includes two broad categories: photovoltaic (PV) solar cells or concentrating solar thermal plants (CSP).
This study considers how large-scale application of solar panels will affect climate. Electricity generation leads to regional cooling but this is countered by the power’s use, affecting global.
Photovoltaic panels absorb direct solar radiation, leading to lower soil moisture evaporation and significant differences in soil evaporation between areas covered by panels and areas without.
