From a solar cell to a PV system
Photovoltaic modules use light energy (photons) from the Sun to generate electricity through the photovoltaic effect. The majority of modules use wafer-based crystalline silicon cells or thin-film cells. The structural (load carrying) member of a module can either be the top layer or the back layer. Cells must also be protected from mechanical damage and moisture. Most modules are rigid, but semi-flexible ones based on thin-film cells are also available. The cells are connected electrically in series, one to another to a desired voltage, and then in parallel to increase amperage. The voltage and amperage of the module are multiplied to create the wattage of the module.
A PV junction box is attached to the back of the solar panel and it is its output interface. Externally, most of photovoltaic modules use MC4 connectors type to facilitate easy weatherproof connections to the rest of the system. Also, USB power interface can be used.
Module electrical connections are made in series to achieve a desired output voltage or in parallel to provide a desired current capability (amperes) of the solar panel or the PV system. The conducting wires that take the current off the modules are sized according to the ampacity and may contain silver, copper or other non-magnetic conductive transition metals. Bypass diodes may be incorporated or used externally, in case of partial module shading, to maximize the output of module sections still illuminated.
Some special solar PV modules include concentrators in which light is focused by lenses or mirrors onto smaller cells. This enables the use of cells with a high cost per unit area (such as gallium arsenide) in a cost-effective way.
Solar panels also use metal frames consisting of racking components, brackets, reflector shapes, and troughs to better support the panel structure.[2]
Applications
There are many practical applications for the use of solar panels or photovoltaics. It can first be used in agriculture as a power source for irrigation. In health care solar panels can be used to refrigerate medical supplies. It can also be used for infrastructure. PV modules are used in photovoltaic systems and include a large variety of electric devices:
• Photovoltaic power stations
• Rooftop solar PV systems
• Standalone PV systems
• Solar hybrid power systems
• Concentrated photovoltaics
• Solar planes
• Solar-pumped lasers
• Solar vehicles
• Solar panels on spacecrafts and space stations
Why do we need renewable energy?
The world currently faces two major interrelated energy problems. The world economy is based on fossil fuels, mainly oil. However oil reserves are finite and the World Energy Outlook 2008 report by the International Energy Agency highlighted the fact that output from the world’s oil fields is declining (IEA, 2008). At the same time demand for oil is expected to grow in countries such as China and India. Concern is rising in the industrialized countries that these issues could lead to a major economic crisis.
The second major problem is climate change. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released a synthesis report in November 2007 based on several decades of international scientific research that confirmed the warming of the climate on Earth (IPCC, 2007). This report also clearly demonstrates for the first time that human activity is the origin of the rapid climate change.
In December 2007 the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the IPCC and Al Gore, the former Vice President of the United States, for efforts to build up and disseminate greater knowledge about manmade climate change, and to lay the foundations for measures that are needed to counteract such change. This again demonstrates the need for urgent international actions to mitigate the negative consequences of climate change due to the increase of greenhouse gas emissions, following the tremendous consumption of fossil fuels.
Converting the present fossil fuel economy into a renewable energy-based economy, using all kinds of available renewable energy sources, is part of the solution to both of these problems.
