Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) have proven to be highly effective in enhancing the conversion efficiency of photovoltaic (PV) cells. However, the traditional LSCs always suffer from self-absorption and escape the losses of luminescence. To these challenges, this study presents an ingenious all-wood-based LSC (W-LSC) with directional light-concentrating capabilities. By converting lignin into fluorescent carbon quantum dots (CQDs) and integrating them into transparent cellulose channels in delignified wood, we achieved efficient directional luminescence transmission in the W-LSC is achieved. The synthesized lignin-based CQDs (L-CQDs) exhibited a large Stokes shift (0.63 eV) and a bright yellow emission (540 nm). The prepared W-LSC possessed an external optical efficiency (ηopt) along the longitudinal (L) direction of 4.60% under a low irradiation intensity (40 mW·cm–2). Besides, contributed to the low thermal conductivity (0.300 W·m–1·K–1) of wood, the W-LSC maintained an ηopt of 4.03% at a temperature of 65 °C. Furthermore, the W-LSC demonstrated high tensile strength (424 MPa) and light transmission (85%). By leveraging the advantages of wood, this approach provides a different solution for enhancing solar energy utilization and advancing sustainable building.

“…And according to the earth's rotation path has a controller that follows the sun's trajectory [2,3] for vertical alignment of the solar light corresponds to the solar panel to gain or produce maximum power conversion. Some literatures to describe or simulate the renewable solar system [4] use Pspice [5] software or other relative analysis software [6] to build models of solar panel, furthermore, that use genetic algorithms [7], annealing model method [8], PSO method [9], bee flying method [10], artificial neural networks [11] and so on the other artificial intelligence methods to find the optimal rotation angle of solar panels, panels placement or fixed angle placement, the best power generation sequence that rely on this application and experiments cooperate with each other to confirm the solar power voltage, power and maximum power track. It is installed a 3.6kW renewable energy solar power generation system and by using parallel connective mode to supply power to the national grid at the same time.…”

Solar panels absorb a large amount of light energy from sunlight and convert it into electrical energy for use. How to increase power and reduce energy loss in various aspects is also the focus of research and development to improve conversion efficiency of solar panels. Set up 3.6kW solar power generator by single-crystal material to produce the Direct Current (DC) power and it is converted into an Alternating current (AC) power through an inverter which meets the parallel conditions of AC power system and supplies loadings with the national power grid at the same time. Meanwhile, a simple monitoring system of solar power was established to rectify and record the data of solar power generation resources and related parameters by big data to analysis the settlement classification relationship. According to the power generation characteristics of the single-crystal solar panels of the power generation by sampling and related parameter data can be used to observe the relationship between solar power generation efficiency, density of illumination, temperature of panel and actual power generation. The power generation of single crystal solar cells is closely related to photos and temperatures and has a short delay effect by statistics theory and methods.

For achieving net-zero emissions by 2050, countries worldwide are committed to setting ambitious carbon reduction targets. In 2022, the officially published report, “Taiwan’s Pathway to Net-Zero Emissions in 2050”, sets out a comprehensive transition plan based on four fundamental strategies: energy, industrial, lifestyle, and social. This transition will likely entail an infrastructure transformation in all sectors of the economy, embracing renewable energy, electricity, and low-carbon fuels. While the Taiwan government is rolling up its sleeves to accelerate the pace of carbon-emission reduction, it is risky to set targets without considering the full implications of net-zero emission and how it will be achieved. This paper provides four insights into Taiwan’s net-zero-emission plan from a perspective of the current understanding of decarbonization and the techniques urgently needed. Although many uncertainties and outstanding questions exist in our net-zero energy systems, and the required granular information for decision makers to track progress has not been clearly identified, this paper points out the characteristics that have been neglected and provides guidance for all stakeholders—governments, businesses, investors, and citizens—to work together on a coordinated plan to tackle climate change.
