However, as their popularity grows, there have been increasing reports of higher life cycle emissions compared to conventional vehicles. These higher life cycle emissions are often associated with the ever-increasing size of the battery.

As governments aim to triple renewable energy capacity by 2030, solar PV is poised for rapid growth, particularly outside mid-latitude regions (China, Europe, US) where uptake has been highest. These new growth areas have diverse environmental conditions, where factors like higher temperatures and aerosol concentrations strongly impact solar power production. A comprehensive review of these effects therefore aids PV performance and siting optimization. This review examines six key influences: solar irradiance, ambient temperature, atmospheric conditions, terrain effects, extreme weather events, and long-term irradiance changes. First, solar irradiance has strong geographic and temporal variability, making it the most significant factor. Second, raising module temperature reduces efficiency by 0.4–0.5 % per degree Celsius, limiting productivity in hotter climates. Third, atmospheric conditions (clouds, aerosols, pollutants, and dust) can reduce electricity output by up to 60 %, especially in desert regions. Fourth, terrain factors like albedo and snow present mixed effects, with increased reflection boosting output but snow obstructing panels. Fifth, extreme weather like wildfires and hailstorms cause substantial damage, while solar eclipses lead to large but short-lived output losses. Finally, long-term changes in solar irradiance, driven by climate change and air pollutants, present future challenges for maintaining PV efficiency. Optimizing PV systems for diverse climates and mitigating environmental impacts on productivity is important to the continued success of solar photovoltaics. This review highlights the need for tailored strategies to maintain performance in varied and evolving environmental contexts.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":418,"journal":{"name":"Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews","volume":"208 ","pages":"Article 115073"},"PeriodicalIF":16.3,"publicationDate":"2024-11-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142651237","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model is further enhanced with transfer learning, to yield accurate early predictions of the future state-of-health of Li-ion batteries up to end-of-life.

This review described the occurrence and impacts of salinity from common substrates (e.g., food waste, organic wastewater and algae) in AD process, and elucidated the mechanisms by which salinity affects AD from the perspectives of microbial community, key genes and enzymes. Salinity in AD comes mainly from chemical additives in the substrate (e.g., salt in food waste) or from the substrate itself (e.g., saline algae). Low salinity can promote methane production, as appropriate Na<sup>+</sup> concentrations can promote ATP synthesis and NADH oxidation, thus facilitating microbial metabolism. High salinity leads to lysis of salt-intolerant microbes, altering the microbial community and inactivating key enzymes, thereby blocking methanogenesis. Microbes can adopt “salt-in” and “compatible solute” strategies to resist salt stress. In addition, quorum sensing is also considered as a potential defense mechanism. Inspired by these cell survival mechanisms, the disinhibition strategies were elaborated from three aspects, namely front optimization (pretreatment, co-digestion, inoculum acclimation, dilution), process optimization (addition of osmoprotectants, potassium, conductive materials and other additives), and system optimization (bioelectrochemical enhancement).

The results from this discrete choice experiment highlight that: (1) the feed-in tariff for rooftop solar power significantly impacts on the Vietnamese households' preference for solar power system; (2) households lose interest in the stand-alone system but remain willing to invest in a low-capacity PV-battery system when the feed-in tariff phases down; and (3) environmental concern, perceived information about solar energy, household size and respondents' marital status significantly influence the households’ preferences for solar power systems. The findings suggest that affordable energy storage batteries under the self-consumption scheme are essential to promote the uptake of solar power system within the context of limited financial resource of developing economies.
