In our energy-conscious times, solar energy technologies are becoming a more familiar part of the energy landscape. Dynamic research is continually being carried out on the urgent challenges of how to make solar energy technologies cheaper, more effective and more widely available. This book brings the reader new thinking on solar energy issues. In the first part, perspectives on applications are introduced. Topics examined include fuel production using concentrated solar energy, modelling and fabrication of thin film solar cells, and a case study of a photovoltaic water pumping systems in Niger. Part two advances the discussion through further studies of key topics in solar power. The reader will find new insights into subjects such as smart approaches to prediction of solar radiation intensity, microturbines for satellite power supply, and the development of solar mirrors. Drawing together expert research in laboratory and practical contexts from around the world, this book is an ideal resource for researchers at all levels in photovoltaics and renewable energy technology more generally.
