Why are crystalline silicon based solar cells dominating the global solar PV market?

Currently, the crystalline silicon (c-Si)-based solar cells are still dominating the global solar PV market because of their abundance, stability, and non-toxicity. 1, 2 However, the conversion efficiency of PV cells is constrained by the spectral mismatch losses, non-radiative recombination and strong thermalisation of charge carriers.

Which is better monocrystalline or polycrystalline solar cell?

Between monocrystalline and polycrystalline solar cell, there is an established statement that the efficiency and the performance rate of monocrystalline were better than the polycrystalline . At 1000 w/m 2 solar radiation , the efficiency of monocrystalline and polycrystalline was 15.27 and 13.53%, respectively.

What are the efficiencies of PV solar cells?

The current efficiencies associated with the technology range from 7 to 16%; however, laboratory tests have achieved up to 20%, which is close to the crystalline silicon–based PV solar cell [54, 63]. One of the advantages of this technology is a low static load characteristic due to the lightweight of cells.

What is the growth rate of the solar PV market?

Conclusions The present PV market is growing at the very high rate of 35–40% per year, and world PV production was 10.66 GW in 2009. More than 80% of the world PV industry is based on c-Si and pc-Si wafer technologies. Single-junction c-Si and GaAs solar cells are approaching their upper limits in terms of the theoretical maximum efficiency.

Are thin-film PV solar cells a good choice?

The thin-film PV solar cell technologies are attractive due to the low cost of fabrication. However, this is ousted by their low levels of efficiency. Compared to the first generation, the second-generation PV solar cells are less mature and have a small market share.
