The major factors that limit the use of solar energy for various applications is that, it is cyclic time-dependent energy source. Therefore, solar system requires energy storage to provide energy in the absence of insolation . Comprehensive research and advancement in energy storage technologies offers benefits for solar in energy application.
Solar power systems are relatively affordable and they are suitable for both urban and rural areas. With this background, solar power technologies which can be utilized for the development of a sustainable electricity generation have been thoroughly reviewed in this research work.
If even a fraction of this could be harvested efficiently, the energy crunch could in principle be averted. Various means for garnering energy from the Sun are presented, including photovoltaics (PV), thin film solar cells, quantum dot cells, concentrating PV and thermal solar power stations, which are more efficient in practical terms.
Solar power is the conversion of sunlight into electricity, either directly using photovoltaic (PV), or indirectly using concentrated solar power (CSP). The research has been underway since very beginning for the development of an affordable, in-exhaustive and clean solar energy technology for longer term benefits.
