Concepts of Solar Technology, Fourth Edition tackles the requirement for solar resource exploration and features progress and advancements involving photovoltaics and solar thermal technologies, grid power, and energy storage.
This edition discusses new technologies in photovoltaics, such as organic, dye-sensitized, and perovskite solar cells, and the design of solar systems and energy plants. It also covers battery energy storage for distributed and bulk storage and electrical integration with the primary solar systems. Additionally, the book encompasses the latest developments in concentrating solar energy plants, including supercritical CO2 cycle. Readers will benefit from explorations of the economics of the solar energy systems, applicable to all the systems covered in the subsequent chapters.
Nine appendices are available for download by all readers.
Features:
-
- Explores new forecasting models in solar radiation that are crucial to the economics and bankability of large solar energy systems, such as power plants.
-
- Incorporates expanded coverage of high-temperature thermal storage for Concentrating Solar Thermal Power (CSP), including thermal energy transport using heat exchangers.
-
- Includes a new chapter on solar seawater desalination.
- Contains new and additional end-of-chapter sample problems and exercises.
This material is intended for senior undergraduate and graduate engineering students taking Energy Engineering and Solar Energy courses.
