Photovoltaic power stations can be divided into centralized power stations and distributed power stations. Centralized power stations are generally built in the northwest region, while distributed photovoltaic systems are relatively scattered, mainly including household photovoltaic and industrial and commercial photovoltaic systems.
The design and function of a photovoltaic power station represent the height of green design and energy transformation. It has the perfect mix of solar panel arrays, photovoltaic cells, and advanced technology. Together, they capture and use solar energy effectively. At the center of the power plant’s design are large solar panel arrays.
The number of households relying on solar PV grows from 25 million today to more than 100 million by 2030 in the Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario (NZE Scenario). At least 190 GW will be installed from 2022 each year and this number will continue to rise due to increased competitiveness of PV and the growing appetite for clean energy sources.
Combining photovoltaic (PV) with air source heat pump (ASHP) yields a great potential in providing heating and domestic hot water (DHW) supply in non-central heating areas. However, the diurnal and seasonal inconsistencies between solar availability and building heat load can severely affect the efficacy of solar energy systems.
Park and Koo (2018) highlight the instrumental role of government subsidies in driving the uptake of solar PV systems among households and businesses. A notable example is the feed-in tariff (FIT) scheme introduced in 2002.
There are two main types of solar power stations: photovoltaic and thermodynamic/concentrated. Photovoltaic plants take advantage of the photovoltaic effect to produce electricity, i.e. the ability of some semiconductor materials (when properly handled) to generate electricity when exposed to light rays.
Photovoltaic modules are made up of a mosaic of solar cells. They are a key component of solar power systems.
