Abstract

In recent years, there have been significant advancements in illuminated solar cell technology, leading to the development of efficient solar systems with better quality semiconducting materials at a lower cost. However, there are certain variables that remain constant and must be taken into consideration when studying illuminated PV modules. These variables, which include spectral wavelength, temperature, and climatic changes, play a crucial role in determining the efficiency of solar cells.To ensure accurate results and establish a standardized analysis, it is essential to identify the perfect analysis dependency variable. This variable must be able to provide approximate exact results for various geographic locations on Earth's surface. Spectral wavelength varies based on climatic and temperature changes, and semiconducting materials used in illuminated PV cells are absorptive, reflective, and emissive in nature, depending on the wavelength of the irradiation. Due to reciprocity, a good absorber is necessarily a good emitter, and a poor absorber is a poor emitter. The temperature also determines the wavelength distribution of the electromagnetic radiation.While the initial setup costs for renewable energy resources may be high, they are crucial for reducing carbon dioxide emissions and ensuring a secure energy future. Renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, geothermal, hydroelectric, and biofuels all have their own positives and negatives. Solar cells rely on the photovoltaic effect, a quantum-mechanical process, to produce electricity. The sun's thermal energy flux that arrives at Earth's surface is several thousand times the current use of primary energy sources by humans. The potential of solar energy is enormous and makes it a crucial component of a renewable energy range that can fulfill daily energy requirements and reduce greenhouse gas emissions globally, which contribute to global climate hazards.

Various solar cell materials have been used, but the current use of solar energy resources represents less than 1% of the total electricity production from renewable sources. Despite the increasing deployment of photovoltaic systems over the last 20 years, solar technologies still face some challenges that make them less competitive on an energy market dominated by fossil fuels. These challenges include high initial investment costs, moderate efficiency conversion, and intermittent power generation.Therefore, there is a need for the advancement of new technologies with higher conversion efficiencies and lower production costs to enable the deployment of solar energy on a large scale. This report aims to summarize the state of research with developed matured and newly emerging solar technologies with high-level potential for large-scale energy generation. It also identifies primary research back history that is vital for improving PV module performance, reliability, and competitiveness.In conclusion, solar energy has enormous potential as a renewable energy resource. With advancements in illuminated solar cell technology, it is possible to develop efficient solar systems with better quality semiconducting materials at a lower cost. However, to establish a standardized analysis, it is crucial to identify the perfect analysis dependency variable, which must be able to provide approximate exact results for various geographic locations on Earth's surface. The deployment of solar energy on a large scale requires the advancement of new technologies with higher conversion efficiencies and lower production costs. This will help to improve PV module performance, reliability, and competitiveness and enable the adoption of solar energy as a crucial component of a renewable energy range that can fulfill daily energy requirements and reduce greenhouse gas emissions globally.
