Present status of solar photovoltaic cells in Asia. International Journal of Renewable Energy Resources, 5. pp. 45-50. ISSN 2289-1846 (2015)
Abstract
Solar energy is one the most popular renewable energy
sources. In this paper, various types of photovoltaic
cells, manufacturing countries, their efficiency of PV
module and overall performance has been analysed and
compared for the Asian countries. Data has been
collected from the datasheets of various manufacturers
in the Asian countries. It is found that the monocrystalline
cells have the better performance compared
to multi-crystalline cells. Chinese manufacturers are
the dominants for the mono-crystalline cell production
with the efficiency of 20% and 18.48% of maximum
and average respectively. The highest efficiency of
multi-crystalline cell production is also achieved by
Chinese manufacturers with the efficiency of 19% and
17.45% maximum and average respectively. But the
highest fill factor is achieved by Taiwan manufacturers
with 80.89% maximum and 79.36% average for
monocrystalline cells and 79.91% maximum and
78.94% average for multi-crystalline cells. It is also
found that during the period of 2009 to 2011 has
achieved the highest production for all types of cells
types as well as rate of production is increasing day-by-day.
