Bifacial solar module technology is a quickly growing market in the photovoltaics (PV) sector. By utilising light impinging on both, front and back sides of the module, actual limitations of conventional monofacial solar modules can be…

Bifacial solar panels are perceived to be the technology of choice for next generation solar farms for their increased energy yield at marginally increased cost. As the bifacial farms proliferate around the world, it is important to…

There have been sustained interest in bifacial solar cell technology since 1980s, with prospects of 30-50% increase in the output power from a stand-alone single panel. Moreover, a vertical bifacial panel reduces dust accumulation and…

With the rapidly growing interest in bifacial photovoltaics (PV), a worldwide map of their potential performance can help assess and accelerate the global deployment of this emerging technology. However, the existing literature only…

The bifacial gain of East-West vertical and South-facing optimally-tilted bifacial farms are well established. One wonders if bifacial gain (and the associated LCOE) may be further improved by tracking the sun. Tracking bifacial PV has…

The prospect of additional energy yield and improved reliability have increased commercial interest in bifacial solar modules. A number of recent publications have quantified the bifacial gain for several configurations. For example, a…

Classical monofacial solar photovoltaic systems have gained prevalence and are widely reported in the literature because they have a lower initial cost compared with bifacial systems. However, limited investigation of both systems has been…

Agrivoltaics is an innovative approach in which solar photovoltaic (PV) energy generation is collocated with agricultural production to enable food-energy-water synergies and landscape ecological conservation. This dual-use requirement…

Agrivoltaic systems represent a key technology for reaching sustainable development goals reducing the completion of land for food versus land for energy. Moreover, agrivoltaic systems are at the centre of the nexus between electricity…

The feasibility and cost-effectiveness of continued growth in solar photovoltaics are closely tied to siting decisions. But trade-offs between costs and technical potential between land categories, especially brownfields and rooftop sites,…

With the increasing penetration of renewable energy sources and energy storage devices in the power system, it is important to evaluate the cost of the system by using Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE). In this paper a new metric, Levelized…

Recent global events emphasize the importance of a reliable energy supply. One way to increase energy supply security is through decentralized off-grid renewable energy systems, for which a growing number of case studies are researched.…

This paper presents a new and innovative design for scaleable space solar power systems based on satellite self-assembly and microwave spatial power combination. Lower system cost of utility-scale space solar power is achieved by…

Wind energy is one of the cleanest renewable electricity sources and can help in addressing the challenge of climate change. One of the drawbacks of wind-generated energy is the large space necessary to install a wind farm; this arises from…

The declining cost of solar photovoltaics (PV) combined with strong federal and state-level incentives have resulted in a high number of residential solar PV installations in the US. However, these installations are concentrated in…

This paper provides a detailed account of the impact of different offshore wind siting strategies on the design of the European power system. To this end, a two-stage method is proposed. In the first stage, a highly-granular siting problem…
