AI Customer ServiceThe potential environmental impacts associated with solar power—land use and habitat loss, water use, and the use of hazardous materials in manufacturing—can vary greatly depending on the technology, which includes two broad categories: photovoltaic (PV) solar cells or concentrating solar thermal plants (CSP).
The previous literature review reveals a well-established environmental impacts assessment of the solar PV systems is crucial. Currently, there is a gap in the literature regarding the impact of different PV system components on the environment.
In this study, an investigation about recent works regarding the effect of environmental and operational factors on the performance of solar PV cell is presented. It is found that dust allocation and soiling effect are crucial, along with the humidity and temperature that largely affect the performance of PV module.
However, the currently available evidence regarding the effects of photovoltaic installations on biodiversity is still scarce. More research is urgently needed on non-flying mammals and bats as well as amphibians and reptiles. Solar thermal panels and floating PV installations should also be further investigated.
Nowadays, several technologies have been developed to make the most of this vast and endless pool of solar energy . At the forefront, solar photovoltaic (PV) panels are made of semiconductors that convert sunlight into electricity.
However, producing and using solar energy technologies may have some environmental affects. Solar energy technologies require materials, such as metals and glass, that are energy intensive to make. The environmental issues related to producing these materials could be associated with solar energy systems.
