Solar batteries present an emerging class of devices which enable simultaneous energy conversion and energy storage in one single device. This high level of integration enables new energy storage concepts ranging from short-term solar energy buffers to light-enhanced batteries, thus opening up exciting vistas for decentralized energy storage.
It has been demonstrated that the fabrication of III–V semiconductor-based photocatalysts is effective in increasing solar light absorption, long-term stability, large-scale production and promoting charge transfer. This focused review explores on the current developments in III–V semiconductor materials for solar-powered photocatalytic systems.
Latest generation silicon carbide semiconductors enable a significant increase in power conversion efficiency in solar power generation systems and associated energy storage.
In any case, the new class of single-component devices circumvents the required electronics to connect a solar cell to a battery (such as DC–DC converters that make up a significant part of the costs of a solar power plant), although it still requires electronics to feed the energy into the grid.
By performing both light absorption and charge storage, bifunctional materials enable the most recent and highest level of material integration in solar batteries. To conclude, bifunctional materials are the most recent development in solar battery research.
Conversion of efficiencies is given in gray. The charging state of the solar battery can be described by the amount of charges C [C g –1] stored on the device, the energy E [Ws g –1] of the accumulated charges, and a cell voltage U [V] that develops from the energy difference between the potential of the anode and cathode.
The efficiency of solar energy storage is thus governed by the individual efficiencies of the solar cell and battery, but also by required transmission lines, inverters, and …
