This book offers a thorough review of new ideas and developments for solar photovoltaic (PV) energy systems. Efforts to reduce costs often take two forms: enhancing the materials and physical construction of PV cells and utilizing power electronic circuits with the PV generator to increase the system's efficiency. Furthermore, random climatic factors, such as temperature and irradiance, have a significant impact on PV system performances. As a result, modeling PV panels and creating optimization plans to maximize power extracted and boost efficiency under various irradiance circumstances are crucial tasks. This book provides a comprehensive overview of cutting-edge techniques in solar PV energy systems.

Photovoltaics, the direct conversion of sunlight to electricity, is now the fastest growing technology for electricity generation. Present "first generation" products use the same silicon wafers as in microelectronics. "Second generation" thin-films, now entering the market, have the potential to greatly improve the economics by eliminating material costs. Martin Green, one of the world’s foremost photovoltaic researchers, argues in this book that "second generation" photovoltaics will eventually reach its own material cost constraints, engendering a "third generation" of high performance thin-films. The book explores, self-consistently, the energy conversion potential of advanced approaches for improving photovoltaic performance and outlines possible implementation paths.
