Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems convert solar energy into electrical energy using semiconductor materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect. PV systems are a sustainable energy solution, contributing to reducing life cycle costs and environmental impacts in service life planning of buildings and assets (STANDARD-BS 2017).
NLR’s solar technology cost analysis examines the technology costs and supply chain issues for solar photovoltaic (PV) technologies. This work informs research and development by identifying drivers of cost and competitiveness for solar technologies.
The systematic review explores diverse applications such as FiT, showcasing their impact on net present value, saving-to-investment ratio, and break-even point. In the case of solar PV pump sets for irrigation, the ALCC analysis highlights the cost-effectiveness of solar PV compared to traditional distribution systems.
Solar energy, especially through photovoltaic systems, is a widespread and eco-friendly renewable source. Integrating life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) optimizes economic, environmental, and performance aspects for a sustainable approach. Despite growing interest, literature lacks a comprehensive review on LCCA implementation in photovoltaic systems.
