Abstract:

Solar photovoltaic (SPV) materials and systems have increased effectiveness, affordability, and energy storage in recent years. Recent technological advances make solar photovoltaic energy generation and storage sustainable. The intermittent nature of solar energy limits its use, making energy storage systems are the best alternative for power generation. Energy storage system choice depends on electricity producing technology. The quest for sustainable energy and long-term solutions has spurred research into innovative solar photovoltaic materials. Researchers want to boost solar cell efficiency by developing new materials that turn sunlight into electricity. This report covers the latest solar photovoltaic device material research. Renewable energy sources like solar electricity are crucial to meeting rising energy needs and mitigating climate change. The use of more efficient, cheaper, and more durable materials could improve solar panel performance and photovoltaic device production. Recent solar photovoltaic material advances are examined in this paper. This study examines scalability, stability, and economic viability issues related to these materials. Novel solar photovoltaic materials could change renewable energy. Researchers and engineers have developed materials with enhanced efficiency, cost, and durability through continual study and technical breakthroughs. These materials could improve solar panel performance and help manufacture highly effective photovoltaic devices. They can significantly impact the shift to a green energy system. Before these materials can be employed on a large scale, issues of scalability, stability, environmental effect, and economic viability must be resolved. To ensure a sustainable future, materials for solar PV systems need to be further investigated and developed. Alternative energy could be generated by the use of novel materials in solar photovoltaic systems. However, further research is needed to overcome constraints and enable wider adoption of these systems.
