“…This table lists all design points for the PV system including the global horizontal irradiance, which is the measure of the solar irradiation intensity in any location. A value of GHI that is greater than 1,000 indicates a suitable location for PV system to be installed in [10,11]. We also considered two monocrystalline PV modules in this study.…”

“…According to Linssen et al [9], for Germany, the demand side load profiles significantly impact the modeling results in terms of total costs, cost-effectiveness, and cost-optimal system configuration in terms of PV and battery capacity of battery-supported photovoltaic systems. However, the models in references [10,11] do not address the impact of FiT and energy consumption tariff implications in their modeling, even though the net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), and payback duration are significant financial indicators used to evaluate an investment.…”

Photovoltaic (PV) system grid integration is becoming more global to minimize carbon emissions from traditional power systems. However, alternative solution investigation for maximum technical and economic benefits is often neglected when integrating PV systems. This study utilizes a methodology for evaluating the lifecycle energy generation and levelized cost of energy (LCOE) of PV systems with various configurations using a holistic approach that considers PV system expenditures from installation to the end-of-life PV system operation. In addition, this work focuses on finding a better configuration with different PV modules (monofacial or bifacial) and structure types (mounted or single-axis) for three different utility scale PV sizes (300 kW, 500 kW, and 1000 kW) in Abu Dhabi, UAE, with the maximum power generation and minimal energy losses. Furthermore, the best suitable configuration was identified to be the configuration with a single-axis tracking structure and bifacial PV modules based on their technical and economic performance for the location with two different surface albedo, 0.2 and 0.8. We also study the PV system’s connection in a standalone off-grid solar-electrolyzer combination to produce green hydrogen. Levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) and levelized cost of hydrogen production (LCOH) are calculated, and results show that such PV systems can be used to generate electricity and produce hydrogen at competitive costs that can reach as low as 2.1 cent/kWh and $2.53/kg-H2 for LCOE and LCOH, respectively. Such a low cost is very competitive and can be used to attract new investments in green hydrogen technology in the United Arab Emirates.

“…The beneficial solar panel system can increase its potential use in Indonesia. Solar panel systems that use renewable energy, especially solar energy, which has sustainable characteristics, can replace conventional energy systems and are likely to reduce dependence on fossil fuels and greenhouse gas emissions (Nurunnabi et al, 2018). On the other hand, the market for rooftop solar panel users continues to be encouraged through Ministerial Regulation Number 49 of 2018.…”

The current high energy consumption can cause scarcity as Indonesia's population growth has increased quite significantly. Alternative energy is needed to anticipate energy problems in the future. Solar energy is one of the options given the most significant potential for energy produced in Indonesia. This research aims to see the strategies that PLN can do to increase the use of Rooftop PV in Indonesia based on the results of the analysis that has been done. The approach to this research is a qualitative approach with the SWOT and FGD methods. Also, the data used are primary data from survey results on Rooftop PV users in Indonesia. The SWOT analysis results show that PLN is in quadrant I, which means it has an extreme market position. PT PLN has the potential to increase the use of Rooftop PV in Indonesia. Two strategic points can be carried out by PLN, namely, carrying out vertical integration and diversifying conglomerates. Also, the researcher has proposed several alternative strategies, namely the upstream (manufacturing) development plan, the downstream (consumer) development plan, and the internal development plan.

The main focus of this paper is to present the current prospects, potentials, research activities, future concerns, and applications of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in Bangladesh. Despite the existence of several articles in the literature on solar energy prospects in Bangladesh, the diffusion of several solar PV applications throughout the country, their rapid progress analysis, and existing feasibility study outcome analysis are still unrevealed. Therefore, an endeavour has been made for the first time to condense the government and non-government contributions to disseminating solar energy throughout the country. Twenty-one feasibility studies at different locations of Bangladesh are reviewed and analysed, in terms of financial viability, sensitivity analysis, and greenhouse gas emissions, to foresee the prospects of solar energy in Bangladesh. Sensitivity analyses are performed, with six sensitivity variables, which reveal that the total net present cost of the solar project implementation may be increased by 20% (maximum) in the lowest solar potential area than the highest one with an average payback period of 13 years. This paper also identifies the policy gaps, classifies the barriers into eight categories, and discusses the conceivable approaches to defeat those barriers, followed by recommendations in six different aspects. INTRODUCTIONElectricity is an essential prerequisite for the sustainable advancement and modern progress of the world [1]. Its utilisation is expanding worldwide with the pace of technological development and quick urbanisation. The global primary energy consumption increases to 13,946.2 million tonnes of oil equivalent (Mtoe) in 2019 from the energy consumption of 11,531.96 Mtoe in 2009, which shows a rapid increment in the demand during the gap of 10 years [2]. Oil represents the most noteworthy contribution of 33.1%, followed by coal (27%) and natural gas (24.2%) among the available energy resources [2]. International Energy Agency (IEA) [3] expected that the supplies of coal, oil, and natural gas would be depleted by 122, 42, and 60 years, individually [4]. Therefore, there is a global need to search for alternative energy sources. It is anticipated that from the year 2011 to 2030, the worldwide essential energy utilisation will increase by 36% with aThis is an open access article under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits use, distribution and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
