There are numerous conceivable solar cell and storage device combinations. Nonetheless, the power must be kept in reserve to offset the sun’s variable availability and the actual energy demand. This issue might be resolved by photo-rechargeable electric energy storage systems, which can store generated electricity right away.
Solar energy would help steady energy prices and give numerous social, environmental and economic benefits. This has been indicated by solar energy’s contribution to achieving sustainable development through meeting energy demands, creating jobs and protecting the environment.
U.S. environmental laws regulate the use and disposal of hazardous materials. The U.S. Department of Energy is supporting various efforts to address end-of-life issues related to solar energy technologies, including recovering and recycling materials used to manufacture PV cells and panels.
However, producing and using solar energy technologies may have some environmental affects. Solar energy technologies require materials, such as metals and glass, that are energy intensive to make. The environmental issues related to producing these materials could be associated with solar energy systems.
To maintain balance between energy production and consumption, there is dire need for other energy conversion or energy storage systems. In Photovoltaic solar cells, there is direct conversion of solar energy into electric energy. This energy is transferred directly to energy clients for usage, without being stored.
Hoang and Yue et al. 20, 21 studied the importance of combining battery energy storage system with solar photovoltaic system in hydrogen energy production and this integration can improve the economy and efficiency of the system, enabling efficient conversion from solar to hydrogen energy.
