The solar photovoltaic (PV) industry in the United States has been the recipient of billions of dollars of subsidies, motivated both by environmental externalities and spillovers across firms from learning-by-doing (LBD) in the installation of the technology. Using a dynamic model of demand and...

Policymakers seem to face a trade-off when designing national trade and investment policies related to clean energy sectors. They have pledged to address climate change and accelerate the large-scale deployment of renewable energy technologies, which would benefit from increased global...

Sustainable biomass exploitation for combined heat and power (CHP) generation is fundamental to address concerns about climate changes related to energy conversion systems. The aim of the work is to design a power plant able to satisfy energy demands exclusively through renewable resources. A...

This paper presents a study on impact of temperature on the performance of series and parallel connected mono-crystalline silicon (mono-Si) solar cell employing solar simulator. The experiment was carried out at constant light intensity 550 W/m2with cell temperature in the range 25-60 oC for...
