A review of photovoltaic systems: Design, operation and maintenance
Solar energy has much promise to replace the planet''s finite supply of fossil fuels as it is sustainable and eco-friendly. Photovoltaic (PV) panels are one example of the proper technology that may transform solar energy into electrical energy. On the other hand, high temperatures may reduce photovoltaic cells'' ability to produce power efficiently.

China''s dominance of solar poses difficult choices for the west
The vast majority of the solar panels on which the world will spend more this year than on oil will come from just one nation. China manufactures 80 per cent of all the solar panels produced globally.
Mostly, the ideal orientation is that solar panels should be facing south. This ensures maximum sunlight exposure throughout the day, resulting in the highest possible output. For this solar panel mounting structures are available to place the panels at the required height and angle. 3. Clean Solar Panels
