PV Solar Industry and Trends Approximately 95% of the total market share of solar cells comes from crystalline silicon materials . The reasons for silicon’s popularity within the PV market are that silicon is available and abundant, and thus relatively cheap.
Silicon solar cells are the most broadly utilized of all solar cell due to their high photo-conversion efficiency even as single junction photovoltaic devices. Besides, the high relative abundance of silicon drives their preference in the PV landscape.
However, challenges remain in several aspects, such as increasing the production yield, stability, reliability, cost, and sustainability. In this paper, we present an overview of the silicon solar cell value chain (from silicon feedstock production to ingots and solar cell processing).
However, the efficiency of these cells is greatly influenced by their configuration and temperature. This research aims to explore the current–voltage (I−V) characteristics of individual, series, and parallel configurations in crystalline silicon solar cells under varying temperatures.
The present work is focusing on the development of a silicon solar cell specifically designed for CPV, which is based on a simplified and reliable CMOS-like manufacturing process. The proposed technology is derived by a simple single-side planar cell scheme known as Passivated Emitter Solar Cell (PESC) , which has been redesigned for CPV.
22% efficient silicon concentrator solar cells have been realized. We describe modeling, design, and fabrication technology. Numerical simulations adopting calibrated physical models have been performed. Numerical simulations have been exploited for cell design optimization.
