Can photovoltaic plants contribute to the decarbonization of the energy sector?

Electricity generation from photovoltaic (PV) plants plays a major role in the decarbonization of the energy sector. The core objective of this paper is to identify the most important conditions for the future development of PV in order to achieve its greatest possible benefits of PV systems for society.

Is photovoltaics a promising technology for renewable electricity generation?

A promising and already established technology for renewable electricity generation is photovoltaics (PV). Despite its invention already in the 19th century, only in the late 1980s, the first solar PV systems have been implemented and paved the way for autark, decentral electricity production.

Will solar PV market grow in 2040 and 2050?

The actual PV system growth depends on the technology's economic performance and associated cost depending on financing options, support schemes and social acceptance. The IEA has published a yearly world energy outlook in which also the trend of solar PV markets is estimated towards 2040 and 2050.

How can governments support the adoption of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems?

In this regard, governments may employ politically motivated interventions to support the adoption of PV systems and foster markets that favor this technology. Nonetheless, it is important to note that such initiatives may temporarily disrupt the functioning of a natural market. 3. Solar Photovoltaic (PV)
