Besides cost and efficiency, there are other barriers for current solar cell technologies to become a noticeable source of energy in the future. Availability of raw materials, energy input, storage of solar electricity, and recycling of dead modules can all prevent or hinder a tangible impact by solar photovoltaics. This book is intended for readers with minimal technical background and aims to explore not only the fundamentals but also major issues in large-scale deployment of solar photovoltaics. Thought-provoking ideas to overcoming some of the barriers are discussed. CONTENTS 1 The Grand Energy Challenge 2 Status of Solar Photovoltaics 3 Physics of Solar Cells 4 Manufacturing of Wafer-Si Solar Cells and Modules 5 Roadblocks to Terawatt Solar Photovoltaics 6 Pathways to Terawatt Solar Photovoltaicsة
