Applied Photovoltaics
A reliable, accessible and comprehensive guide for students of photovoltaic applications and renewable energy engineering. This thoroughly considered textbook from a group of leading influential and award-winning authors is brimming with information and is carefully designed to meet the needs of its readers. Along with exercises and references at the end of each chapter, the book features a set of detailed technical appendices that provide essential equations, data sources and standards. Starting from basics with 'The Characteristics of Sunlight' the reader is guided step-by-step through semiconductors and p-n junctions; the behaviour of solar cells; cell properties ad design; and PV cell interconnection and module fabrication. The book covers stand-alone photovoltaic systems; specific purpose photovoltaic systems; remote are power supply systems; and grid-connected photovoltaic systems. There is also a section on photovoltaic water pumping system components and design. Applied Photovolatics is well illustrated and readable with an abundance of diagrams and illustrations, and will provide the reader with all the information needed to start working with photovoltaics.
Solar Energy: Theory and Applications
After the near depletion of non-renewable energy resources, human returned again to search for renewable sources, especially the sun as a clean and free energy source. In line with the global trend in optimizing the benefit of solar energy. This book aims to:- study solar energy as an important source of renewable energy, highlight its various applications, help the students of engineering and basic science colleges as well as all how interested in solar energy. This book contains 12 chapters dealing with the concepts of solar energy, solar radiation, as well as the physics of solar cells and their various types which based on amorphous- and crystalline-silicon, thin films ones. The book also highlighted various types of PV systems, condensation and aggregation solar thermal techniques, as well as energy storage technologies using photoelectrochemical cells.
Renewable Energy Resources
Renewable Energy Resources is a numerate and quantitative text covering the full range of renewable energy technologies and their implementation worldwide. Energy supplies from renewables (such as from biofuels, solar heat, photovoltaics, wind, hydro, wave, tidal, geothermal, and ocean-thermal) are essential components of every nation’s energy strategy, not least because of concerns for the local and global environment, for energy security and for sustainability. Thus in the years between the first and this third edition, most renewable energy technologies have grown from fledgling impact to significant importance because they make good sense, good policy and good business. This Third Edit...
50 Great Moments
This captivating book presents 50 great moments from the past five decades of the Electron Microscope Unit's activities. Blending history and science in an engaging style, 50 Great Moments tells the story of the unit's creation and profiles the key figures that have forged the facility into the success that it is today.
Climate Governance and Federalism
A review of federal and decentralised systems of governance, and whether these facilitate or hinder climate change mitigation and adaptation.
Beam Injection Assessment of Defects in Semiconductors
The 5th International Workshop on Beam Injection Assessment of Defects in Semiconductors (BIADS 98) focussed on many theoretical and experimental aspects of this topic. The aim was to bring together specialists working in the fields of both fundamental research and applications. There were more than 80 participants from 15 countries all over the world.
Thin Films for Photovoltaic and Related Device Applications: Volume 426
There has been considerable progress in the development of thin-film photovoltaic devices with new efficiency records and enhanced durability. These achievements are the result of significant advances in the fundamental understanding of the materials, interfaces and devices. With 18 countries represented, this truly international volume brings together engineers and researchers from academic, industrial and national laboratories worldwide to review different materials systems and address common issues and problems. A wide variety of topics related to the development of thin-film photovoltaic and related devices, including thick-film transistors and materials for flat-panel displays, are addressed. Areas of emphasis include materials synthesis, device fabrication and characterization, and modelling. Topics include: thin-film amorphous silicon devices; thin-film silicon devices; thin-film devices based on copper-indium diselenide; cadmium-telluride devices; transparent conductive oxides and related materials for thin-film devices; and novel concepts for thin-film photovoltaics.
