Advantages and limitis of solar energy |
|
Answer» Solar power is a 100% clean, renewable energy source. It REDUCES reliance on oil, coal and NATURAL gas for electricity production. These FOSSIL FUELS produce harmful emissions that affect the quality of air, water and soil, and are responsible for global warmingExplanation:The limit is that the maximum solar conversion efficiency is around 33.7% for a single p-n junction photovoltaic cell, assuming typical sunlight conditions (unconcentrated, AM 1.5 solar spectrum), and subject to other caveats and assumptions discussed below. This maximum occurs at a band GAP of 1.34 eV. |
