  2. Thermophotovoltaic energy conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermophotovoltaic_energy...

    Thermophotovoltaic (TPV) energy conversion is a direct conversion process from heat to electricity via photons.A basic thermophotovoltaic system consists of a hot object emitting thermal radiation and a photovoltaic cell similar to a solar cell but tuned to the spectrum being emitted from the hot object.

  3. Mini-grid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mini-grid

    A solar mini-grid in Bayelsa, Nigeria operated by Renewvia [1]. A mini-grid is an aggregation of electrical loads and one or more energy sources operating as a single system providing electricity and possibly heat, isolated from a main power grid.

  4. Photovoltaic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_effect

    The first demonstration of the photovoltaic effect, by Edmond Becquerel in 1839, used an electrochemical cell. He explained his discovery in Comptes rendus de l'Académie des sciences, "the production of an electric current when two plates of platinum or gold immersed in an acid, neutral, or alkaline solution are exposed in an uneven way to solar radiation."

  5. Sol-air temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sol-air_temperature

    The above equation only takes into account the temperature differences and ignores two important parameters, being 1) solar radiative flux; and 2) infrared exchanges from the sky. The concept of T sol-air was thus introduced to enable these parameters to be included within an improved calculation. The following formula results:

  6. Stand-alone power system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stand-alone_power_system

    In stand-alone photovoltaic power systems, the electrical energy produced by the photovoltaic panels cannot always be used directly. As the demand from the load does not always equal the solar panel capacity, battery banks are generally used. The primary functions of a storage battery in a stand-alone PV system are:

  7. Concentrator photovoltaics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concentrator_photovoltaics

    To be explicit, consider the power (P) generated by a solar cell under "one-sun" illumination at the earth's surface, which corresponds to a peak solar irradiance Q=1000 Watts/m 2. [21] The cell power can be expressed as a function of the open-circuit voltage (V oc ), the short-circuit current (I sc ), and the fill factor (FF) of the cell's ...
