Abstract: Solar Photovoltaic (PV) energy conversion system has drawn the tremendous attention of researchers in the past recent years. The concern related to global energy crisis and climate change threats from conventional sources of energy leads to look for alternate sources of energy.
Photovoltaic (PV) cells are popularly considered a feasible device for solar energy conversion. However, the temperature on the surface of a working solar cells can be high, which significantly decreases the power conversion efficiency and seriously reduces the cell life.
Over the last years, photovoltaic cells capable of converting solar energy into other forms of energy have become increasingly popular, with applications ranging from heating and electricity generation, to water treatment, and others.
To develop an efficient and stable solar PV energy conversion various analysis are done by the researchers. It is analyzed at various facets like PV module characteristic and its arrangement, Power Electronics converters topologies, Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) algorithm, stability of the system etc.
... Photovoltaic energy comes from the direct transformation of part of the solar radiation into electrical energy. This energy conversion takes place through a PV cell exposed to light based on a physical phenomenon called the photovoltaic effect, which was discovered by the French physicist Antoine César Becquerel in 1839 .
Furthermore, the growing need for renewable energy sources and the necessity for long-term energy solutions have fueled research into novel materials for solar photovoltaic systems. Researchers have concentrated on increasing the efficiency of solar cells by creating novel materials that can collect and convert sunlight into power.
The process of directly converting sunlight into electricity without using a heat engine is known as photovoltaic conversion. The fundamental benefit of photovoltaic devices is that they are made as standalone systems, allowing them to provide outputs ranging from microwatts to megawatts.
