    source, and presents an attractive way of mitigating climate change. PV cell photovoltaic is the direct conversion of light into electricity. It uses materials which absorb photons of lights and release electrons charges. 1.1 Photovoltaic systems A Photovoltaic system is an arrangement of components designed to supply usable electric power for a variety of purposes, using the Sun as the power source. All photovoltaic (PV) systems are similar in nature but differ in details from each

    First Solar, Inc. located in Huntington Beach is a design and manufacturing company found in 1999 who produce photovoltaic modules, or solar panels, through the use of thin film semiconductors (Reuters, para 2). The company however, has a much earlier history than scribed. In 1984, inventor and owner of Solar Cells, Inc Harold McMaster manufactured solar cells from silicon (energyandcapital, para 2). However, as silicon became more expensive, McMaster decided to switch to cadmium telluride. This

    Refrigeration systems that use environment-friendly refrigerants provide a sustainability advantage when compared to other refrigerant selections. However, the energy use associated with refrigeration system operation and the environmental impacts associated with its generation and distribution often outweigh the choice of refrigerant. To minimize environmental impacts associated with refrigeration system operation, it is reasonable to evaluate the prospects of a clean source of energy. Research

    nearly a year. A Photovoltaic (PV) cell is a semiconductor device that directly converts the energy of solar radiation into electric energy. In general, an element that converts sunlight into electricity is called a PV device. The fundamental PV device is the PV cell, while a set of connected cells form a panel or module. As an array either a module or a set of modules can be considered cite{Breza2013}. The purpose of this chapter is to provide an introduction into the photovoltaic solar energy and
