Role of Solar Photovoltaics for a Sustainable Energy System in Puerto Rico in the Context of the Entire Caribbean Featuring the Value of Offshore Floating Systems
The Caribbean and Puerto Rico are lagging in ramping renewable energy (RE) capacities. Energy system transition pathways reaching 100% RE by 2050 for Puerto Rico and the Caribbean are analyzed for all energy supplies. Islands are often limited in available land; therefore, scenario variations are considered, including offshore floating photovoltaics (PV). The results for Puerto Rico clearly indicate the enormous benefits of reaching 100% RE, as the levelized cost of electricity (LCOE) can be reduced from more than 100 €/MWh in 2020 to 47.4 €/MWh in 2050, and the levelized cost of energy, including all energy sectors, declines from 79 to 53 €/MWh, respectively. PV reaches 81% of all electricity supply, leading to 33.4 GW installed capacity, thereof 17.5 GW offshore floating PV due to area limitation. Without area limitation, the total system cost would be about 2.7% lower. The key metrics for the Caribbean development from 2020 to 2050 are as follows: electricity generation from 110 to 677 TWh, PV supply share from 2% to 92%, PV capacity from 1 to 332 GW, thereof 19% prosumer, 81% utility-scale with up to 38% offshore floating PV, and LCOE from above 100 to 31.9 €/MWh. The prosperity of Puerto Rico and the Caribbean is closely related to solar PV, the dominating source of energy in their Solar-to-X Economy.
期刊介绍:
The IEEE Journal of Photovoltaics is a peer-reviewed, archival publication reporting original and significant research results that advance the field of photovoltaics (PV). The PV field is diverse in its science base ranging from semiconductor and PV device physics to optics and the materials sciences. The journal publishes articles that connect this science base to PV science and technology. The intent is to publish original research results that are of primary interest to the photovoltaic specialist. The scope of the IEEE J. Photovoltaics incorporates: fundamentals and new concepts of PV conversion, including those based on nanostructured materials, low-dimensional physics, multiple charge generation, up/down converters, thermophotovoltaics, hot-carrier effects, plasmonics, metamorphic materials, luminescent concentrators, and rectennas; Si-based PV, including new cell designs, crystalline and non-crystalline Si, passivation, characterization and Si crystal growth; polycrystalline, amorphous and crystalline thin-film solar cell materials, including PV structures and solar cells based on II-VI, chalcopyrite, Si and other thin film absorbers; III-V PV materials, heterostructures, multijunction devices and concentrator PV; optics for light trapping, reflection control and concentration; organic PV including polymer, hybrid and dye sensitized solar cells; space PV including cell materials and PV devices, defects and reliability, environmental effects and protective materials; PV modeling and characterization methods; and other aspects of PV, including modules, power conditioning, inverters, balance-of-systems components, monitoring, analyses and simulations, and supporting PV module standards and measurements. Tutorial and review papers on these subjects are also published and occasionally special issues are published to treat particular areas in more depth and breadth.
