It examines the current state of solar power and related academic solar energy research in different countries, aiming to provide valuable guidance for researchers, designers, and policymakers interested in incorporating solar energy into their nation's electricity generation.
The utilization of renewable energy as a future energy resource is drawing significant attention worldwide. The contribution of solar energy (including concentrating solar power (CSP) and solar photovoltaic (PV) power) to global electricity production, as one form of renewable energy sources, is generally still low, at 3.6%.
Furthermore, policymakers should focus on understating the social and economic aspect of solar energy, such as the total number of jobs created by solar projects, the impact on gross domestic product (GDP) and gender inequality in solar projects.
Figure 17 shows an overview of the distribution of solar papers by the type of SDG, and from this chart, it can be clearly seen that SDG 7 (affordable and clean energy) was, by far, the most dominant in solar research, with 91,708 documents in total, rounding up to over 72% of the total documents, followed by SDG 13 (Climate action) with 11.46%.
Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) (from , accessed on 13 July 2022). The SCOPUS online database was used to collect all the scientific papers published regarding “solar” from 2011 to 2021, and the total number of documents extracted from the database was 276,989.
Academic research plays a crucial role in shaping a country's industry. This review paper focuses on the connection between academic solar energy research and its practical real-world implications.
