Analysis of Plastic Solar Cells 2016
Plastic solar cells makes use of nanotechnology to make solar photovoltaics more efficient and is the next leap in technology in the solar PV industry. Aruvian Research’s report Analysis of Plastic Solar Cells 2016 analyzes the growing potential that this technology holds for the future of the solar PV industry.
This report on Plastic Solar Cells begins with laying the foundation of the Solar Cell system and their subsequent propagation into photovoltaic systems including their applications derived from generational leaps as first to third generation cells. The report presents the entire gamut of PV cells in a structured family tree for easy interpretation and also delves into the applications of PV Technology in isolated environment. It also devotes an entire in-depth section to the technical aspects of Plastic Solar Cells systems including their history as well as mechanism, general operation principles and the new innovations in architecture design of Plastic Solar Cells which have opened up new markets for solar power systems. These are further explained in the efficient design choices of various configurations and new ideas contributed in this field.
