The solar thermal energy storage efficiency η experiment of the MOST system has been determined to reach up to 2.3%, representing the highest recorded efficiency to date. 34 Additionally, the inclusion of the MOST system as a non-heating temperature stabilizer with optical filter effect can further enhance the efficiency of the PV cell.
Coupling solar energy and storage technologies is one such case. The reason: Solar energy is not always produced at the time energy is needed most. Peak power usage often occurs on summer afternoons and evenings, when solar energy generation is falling.
This work consequently proposes a portable solar-powered dual battery-supercapacitor storage system (PSDBS) with a mode selector-based controller, which is demonstrated to enable various size loads to function continuously under varying indoor simulated sunlight and three outdoor scenarios: sunny, cloudy, and mixed days.
4. Conclusion The standalone portable solar-dual storage (or PSDBS) system presented has been demonstrated for versatility through real usage under different outdoor weather conditions with variety of load supports both AC and DC load up to 300 W.
Two main issues are (1) PV systems’ efficiency drops by 10%–25% due to heating, requiring more land area, and (2) current storage technologies, like batteries, rely on unsustainably sourced materials. This paper proposes a hybrid device combining a molecular solar thermal (MOST) energy storage system with PV cell.
The efficiency and longevity of PV systems diminish as temperatures increase, resulting in significant reductions in energy output and cycling capability. Additionally, the growing importance of solar energy storage is underscored by the fluctuating nature of solar energy production and the variability in energy demand.
