Abstract

Abstract Environmental sustainability and energy security are two major issues, which are globally attracting the attention of the scientists and researchers. The sustainable development goal (SDG-7) calls for sustainable and modern energy for all. Solar energy has great potential and it can be transformed in other usable forms through various energy harvesting technologies. The photovoltaic cell utilizes solar radiation to generate green electricity. Photovoltaic cells follow the mechanism of photon to electron conversion for electricity production. Recently, organic solar cell, which is a type of photovoltaic cells, has shown potential to overcome demerits faced by photovoltaic cell like low flexibility, weight and environmental biodegradability issues. Dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) is a kind of the organic solar cell. A (DSSC) has been fabricated using Punica Granatum (pomegranate juice) as sensitizer. The maximum efficiency of the solar cell is observed to be 0.16 %. The effect of various climatic parameters the performance of fabricated dye sensitized solar cell has also been evaluated and reported.

基于二氧化钛的太阳能电池用于绿色发电的效率和环境稳定性

环境可持续性和能源安全是全球科学家和研究人员关注的两大问题。可持续发展目标(SDG-7)要求为所有人提供可持续的现代能源。太阳能潜力巨大，可以通过各种能量收集技术转化为其他可用的形式。光伏电池利用太阳辐射产生绿色电力。光伏电池遵循光子到电子转换的机制来发电。近年来，有机太阳能电池作为光伏电池的一种，已显示出克服光伏电池柔韧性低、重量轻和环境生物降解性等缺点的潜力。染料敏化太阳能电池(DSSC)是一种有机太阳能电池。以石榴汁为增敏剂制备了A (DSSC)。观察到太阳能电池的最大效率为0.16 %。评价并报道了各种气候参数对所制备的染料敏化太阳能电池性能的影响。
