Assuming a global population of 9 billion people, each using approximately 100 W of power continuously throughout the day, calculate the total land area that would have to be set aside for photovoltaic power generation, assuming 800 W/m2 of incident solar power and a conversion efficiency (sunlight to electricity) of 10%.
The total land area that would have to be set aside for photovoltaic power generation is km2.
If a PV cell will produce 7-9 watts per square feet, suppose if the rooftop area is 19ftX7 ft then how much power on average it will produce? Also, calculate the energy produced for one year if the effective time of utilisation is 6.5 hours?
A solar panel has a surface area of 0.5 m^2 and delivers maximum power at 2.5A, 19 V when in sunlight with incident radiation of 95 mW/cm^2. If the open circuit voltage is 25 V and the short circuit current is 3 A, calculate:(a) the power generated by the panel,(b) the fill factor, and(c) the efficiency of the panel.
(d) Given that the solar panel is exposed to sunlight 6.5 hours per day (on average) and the energy used to manufacture the solar panel is 890 kWh/m^2, calculate the energy payback time of the solar panel.
