However, air pollution and soiling of PV modules prevail worldwide, potentially casting a shadow on solar PV power generation. This study presents a comprehensive review of the documented impact of air pollution and PV soiling on solar resources and techno-economic performances of PV systems.
llution, which is far from comprehensive to reveal the impact of air pollution on the solar PV sector. In addition, soiling is still a severe challenge for solar power generation around the wo ld and research on the impact of C VID-19-related measures on the solar energy field is quite scarce.5. Re
Elimination of air pollution by governmental policies and measures is beneficial to increase surface solar radiation and, consequently, increasing the power generation of PV modules. In addition, reducing air pollution, especially the concentrations of particulate matter, would also decrease the soiling of PV modules.
However, urban air pollution has been an urgent environmental issue faced by many cities due to urbanization and industrialization along with the combustion of fossil fuels, which inversely affects the solar PV potential.
They pointed out that air pollution elimination would result in an annual increase between 51 and 74 TWh in PV electricity generation potential based on the expectation that China’s solar PV capacity will be at least 400 GW by 2030.
Although extensive research has been carried out on the environmental impact of PV, but very few studies exist as a review that covers the effect during the whole PV lifetime cycle. Accordingly, this review addresses comprehensively, all the key environmental impacts associated with solar PV power generation.
