3D photovoltaic (PV) devices employ a 3D structure to improve photoelectric efficiency by increasing the amount of light captured by the light-absorbing material in the PV cell or panel. ... 3D PV technology can also improve solar cell performance by reducing light reflection.
The innovative 3D design removes many of the manufacturing process steps required by existing photovoltaics (PV) modules.
It is radically different architecture that can drive down the costs of cell manufacture may define the future of renewable energy as it potentially reduces optical losses within a device, according to UK scientists.
The innovative 3D design removes many of the manufacturing process steps required by existing photovoltaics (PV) modules and allows new materials to be used that would not usually be appropriate in regular solar cells.
"There is global interest in using solar cells to generate low carbon, green electricity. The design of the back contacted solar module is both innovative and elegant, and can potentially reduce optical losses within the device,”
WORK :
Solar panels mostly convert visible light into electrical energy, and they also can make use of almost half the infrared energy. But solar panels only use a small portion of ultraviolet.
Advantages of Solar Energy :
. Renewable Energy Source
. Reduces Electricity Bills
. Low Maintenance Costs
Disadvantages of Solar Energy :
Weather-Dependent. Although solar energy can still be collected during cloudy and rainy days, the efficiency of the solar system drops. ...
Solar Energy Storage Is Expensive. ...
Uses a Lot of Space. ...
