Shrestha and Raut (2020) assessed the technical, financial, and market potential of the rooftop PV system on residential buildings in three major cities of Nepal through a field survey instead of simulation, and the results showed that 35% of the city's annual electricity consumption could be covered by solar power.
Gernaat et al. (2020) estimated that the global suitable roof area for PV generation was 36 billion square meters. This represents a potential of 8.3 PWh/y, which is equivalent to 150% of the global residential electricity demand in 2015. This demonstrates the potential of replacing traditional electricity sources with rooftop PVs.
Eskom Holdings Ltd, Jul. 2014 Energy storage technologies is transforming the way the world and utility companies utilize, control and dispatch electrical energy. In several countries, the consequential effect of meeting electrical demands continues to burden the electrical infrastructure leading to violation of statutory operating limits.
The unique properties of roofs, such as good sunlight incidence, good ventilation conditions, no redundant shielding, and flexible tilt angle for PV panels, are advantageous for solar energy harvesting. Accordingly, roofs present the highest efficiency potential for PV generation systems in buildings (Lin et al., 2014).
Their incorporation into building roofs remains hampered by the inherent optical and thermal properties of commercial solar cells, as well as by esthetic, economic, and social constraints. This study reviews research publications on rooftop photovoltaic systems from building to city scale.
Continuous research and development of PV materials has led to highly efficient solutions for rooftop PV promotion, including the reduction of production costs, improvement of building integration, higher cell efficiency, and flexibility for placement in uneven building surfaces.
