Planning and installing photovoltaic system: a guide for installers, architects and engineers

摘要

Life on earth is heliocentric as most of its energy is derived from the sun. Climate change and the demand for clean energy sources have aroused global interest in solar energy: the cleanest and most abundant renewable energy source available. Photovoltaic technology is a major sustainable means to produce electrical energy. Photovoltaic (PV), like any solar technology, offers an opportunity to exploit the dispersed nature of solar energy and to create a spatially distributed system for electricity production. PV power plants are being increasingly used around the world. There is a need for a manual for successful installation of PV panels. This book fulfils it. The 10 chapters provide details for everything necessary for success in the task of installing a PV system, including legal and marketing questions.
