Abstract
Photovoltaic power generation technology converts sunlight directly into electricity without any heat engine interference, offering a new solution to address the growing energy crisis and environmental pollution. However, land-based photovoltaic systems face challenges such as limited space availability, intense heating of photovoltaic cells, dust deposition, and shading effects. The focus on solar energy is gradually shifting towards the ocean. Marine photovoltaic systems can effectively overcome the limitations of land-based photovoltaics, avoiding shading, utilizing a broader space, and utilizing seawater as a cooling medium to reduce the temperature of photovoltaic systems. Currently, numerous review articles emphasize marine floating photovoltaics, yet there is a lack of commentary on marine longitudinal space photovoltaic power generation systems. Therefore, this review meticulously introduces the latest research progress in marine photovoltaic systems, encompassing floating photovoltaic systems, fixed pile foundation photovoltaic systems, photovoltaic systems applied to ocean-going vessels, and underwater photovoltaic systems. The spatial division rules of sea level, above sea surface and below sea surface are used to summarize. The work thoroughly analyzes the factors influencing the efficiency and performance of each system. Furthermore, an economic and feasibility evaluation is conducted for each system, providing a robust research foundation for the future development and application of marine photovoltaic technology.
期刊介绍:
The mission of Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews is to disseminate the most compelling and pertinent critical insights in renewable and sustainable energy, fostering collaboration among the research community, private sector, and policy and decision makers. The journal aims to exchange challenges, solutions, innovative concepts, and technologies, contributing to sustainable development, the transition to a low-carbon future, and the attainment of emissions targets outlined by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change.
Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews publishes a diverse range of content, including review papers, original research, case studies, and analyses of new technologies, all featuring a substantial review component such as critique, comparison, or analysis. Introducing a distinctive paper type, Expert Insights, the journal presents commissioned mini-reviews authored by field leaders, addressing topics of significant interest. Case studies undergo consideration only if they showcase the work's applicability to other regions or contribute valuable insights to the broader field of renewable and sustainable energy. Notably, a bibliographic or literature review lacking critical analysis is deemed unsuitable for publication.
