This comprehensive book delves into a thorough life cycle assessment of photovoltaic technologies, aiming to evaluate the environmental and socioeconomic implications of a significant expansion of solar photovoltaic systems in the near future. Spanning both commercial and emerging technologies, the book presents an in-depth analysis of the energy and materials needed to manufacture solar electricity power systems on a massive scale, as envisioned by the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA) for the foreseeable future. It explores current manufacturing practices and examines how these can be adapted for future growth, including strategies for component reuse, recycling, raw material supply chains, and end-of-life procedures such as module recycling and landfilling.
The book meticulously examines the environmental and socioeconomic impacts of solar energy, offering valuable recommendations for standardization and regulations to make photovoltaic technologies, both current and emerging, a truly sustainable alternative for the provision of "greener" electricity. By comprehensively assessing the life cycle of photovoltaic systems, this book provides valuable insights into the potential benefits and challenges associated with their widespread adoption, contributing to the development of a more sustainable and environmentally friendly energy future.
