This document provides the most comprehensive global overview of the development of the Photovoltaics sector, covering policies, drivers, technologies, statistics and industry analysis. The market grew again to 174 GW in 2021 and even more was installed in 2022 despite the second year pandemic and despite the end-of-year disruptions in Asia.
Introduction Solar photovoltaic (PV) technology is indispensable for realizing a global low-carbon energy system and, eventually, carbon neutrality. Benefiting from the technological developments in the PV industry, the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) of PV energy has been reduced by 85% over the past decade .
In this regard, governments may employ politically motivated interventions to support the adoption of PV systems and foster markets that favor this technology. Nonetheless, it is important to note that such initiatives may temporarily disrupt the functioning of a natural market. 3. Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
In summary, PV is now a mainstream source of electricity, at the core of the energy transition. While more is still required to efficiently tackle the challenges of climate change, the accelerating and unstoppable global development of PV presents an immediate pathway to decarbonization.
The integrated PV-battery design offers a compact and energy-efficient version of the PV-battery systems. The flexibility the design offers with fewer required wirings and packaging requirements, while the smaller footprint is significant especially for small-scale consumer electronics.
Due to the benefit of low costs, many developing nations are more interested in investing in solar energy to meet energy demands; consequently, the adoption of solar technologies fulfills the basic needs of food and shelter, health, and education and uplifts society .
