The review is about environmental considerations, such as using raw materials, production process, energy consumption, emissions, and disposal of the solar cell. Sustainability in the assessment includes consideration of various economic, social and environmental aspects, and benefits and risks of the organization in the long run.
Moreover, the efficiency of a solar cell is the ratio of electrical output at maximum power point (MPP) and total power of incident light. The electrical output at the maximum power point can be obtained by multiplying the current (J mp) and the voltage (V mp) of the cell at MPP. Therefore, the efficiency ɳ can be expressed as Equation (3).
The prospects of various solar cell technologies are promising but differ in focus. Silicon-based solar cells continue to evolve, with prospects for improved efficiency and cost reduction through advanced materials and manufacturing techniques.
