The introduction of a practical solar cell by Bell Laboratory, which had an efficiency of approximately 6%, signified photovoltaic technology as a potentially viable energy source. Continuous efforts have been made to increase power conversion efficiency (PCE). In the present review, the advances made in solar cells (SCs) are summarized.
Overall, crystalline silicon solar cells (mono-Si and multi-Si) had higher power conversion efficiency than thin-film solar cells, with mono-Si having an efficiency of 19–22% and 15–18% for multi-Si. GaAs and GaAs Tandem thin-film solar cells, had higher efficiencies of 26.55% and 28.25%, respectively.
GaAs and GaAs Tandem thin-film solar cells, had higher efficiencies of 26.55% and 28.25%, respectively. The estimated findings of life cycle energy demand, EPBT, and GHG emission rates of thin-film solar cell systems were influenced by different factors.
For commercial thin film solar cell technologies (a-Si, CIGS, CIS, CdTe, GaAs and tandem GaAs), the life cycle CED ranged from 684 to 8671 MJ/m 2 (median: 1248 MJ/m 2). This range was higher than emerging thin-film solar cell technologies (PSC, PSC tandem, DSSCs, OPV, CZTS, QD) that reported a CED range of 37–24007 MJ/m 2 (median: 721 MJ/m 2).
Review of cumulative energy demand (CED) during the life cycle for various thin-film solar cell technologies in comparison to conventional Si-Based technologies. Among the twelve types of thin film solar cell technologies, only GaAs required more energy than mono-Si (4056.5 MJ/m2) and multi-Si (3924.5 MJ/m2).
