Abstract:

With the growing population and increasing of pollution at a faster rate by using a conventional source of energy leads to global warming, natural hazards, access earth mining worldwide and demand of energy at low cost focusing the researcher on substituting the renewable energy system to meet the requirement of energy consumption has reached to peak level worldwide. Hence,Solar Energy is becoming one of the important energy in the future as a great renewable energy source.However,solar PV cells' cost is still several times higher than the conventional power generation. So it is very necessary to improve the efficiency of the solar PV cells. It is necessary to have that source available easily and in sufficient quantity so that with the diminishing non-renewable source,the basic need forenergy can be fulfilled. This source can be an all-time available source. This paper seeks the tremendous progress made in recent years on photovoltaic (PV) cells materials, geometrical shapes, and devices in terms of their conversion efficiencies.Solar cells vary its performance under temperature changes or say that climate change is variable concerning climatic change. Climate condition is also variable with seasonal change (i.e., summer, rainy, and winter) even hours to hours, and day today. Change in temperature affects its power generation. The rapid development of solar PV cells has created a challenging environment in the future. Efficiency can be increased either by changing PV material, concentrating solar rays, or using a solar tracking system. This paper deals with a brief overview of the recent progress in PV cell efficiencies, energy and power generation based on different climatic conditions, and the selection of good quality materials and devices so that maximum sun heat can be absorbed and power conversion occurs.
