Capacity Growth REN21 2014
Solar PVBy early 2014, at least 53 solar PV plants larger than 50 MW were operating in at least 13 countries. The world’s 50 biggest plants reached cumulative capacity exceeding 5.1 GW by the end of 2013.
CSPTotal global capacity increased by nearly 0.9 GW, up 36%, to more than 3.4 GW. The United States and Spain continued their global market leadership.
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 12
Regional
Asia became the largest regional market in Solar PV. Added 22.76GW to end 2013 with almost 42GW of Solar PV in Operation.
Japan concentrates mostly on rooftop/floating installations for lack of spatial resources.
China focused on the sunny western provinces which are far from available grid connections.
India added 1.1GW, South Korea- 0.4GW and Thailand 0.3 GW.

Philippines
“The Philippines is located just right above the equator. It is blessed with a good potential for solar energy . The average solar radiation ranges from 128-203W/m2 which is equivalent to around 4.5-5.5 kWh/m2/day. The government has set aspirational target of 1,528 MW in the National Renewable Energy Plan to be reached by 2030.”re-guidelines.info/uploads/tech_files/E-Guidebook Large_Solar_PV_PH_for_publish_webres.pdf

Solar systems may be categorized depending on the way that they capture and convert sunlight into usable energy.
• Passive Solar Systems –harness the heat energy from sunlight without the use of moving parts or electronics
• Active Solar Systems – use mechanical or electrical devices that convert the sun's heat or light to another form of usable energy
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 25
Active Solar Systems - PV
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 26
Photovoltaics• Directly converts energy from sunlight into
electricity
• Solar panels capture light energy from the sun, and then use that energy to drive an electric current
Active Solar Systems - PV

Photovoltaics
Active Solar Systems – Solar Thermal
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 28
Solar Thermal Energy Collection
– collects and converts energy from the sun into heat
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 29
Active Solar Systems - CSP
Concentrated Solar Power
- uses mirrors to concentrate the sun’s light energy and convert it into heat to create steam to drive a turbine that generates electrical power
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 30

Trough Systems
Power Tower Systems
Dish Engine Systems
Passive Solar Systems
Architectural features and building components are designed and oriented to collect, store, and distribute the heat energy from sunlight to maintain the comfort of the occupants without the use of moving parts or electronics.
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 32
Transportation, Handling and Storage
Power plants can be built as:
• Distributed Generation
- Power generation at the point of consumption
• Utility-Scale
- Generates solar power and feeds it into the grid, supplying a utility with energy

Hazardous Materials and its Disposal (Solar PV)
The majority of photovoltaic panels are made from silicon and other metals that are potentially toxic like mercury, lead, and cadmium.
EgyE 201 | Solar Energy Report 38
Greenhouse EmissionsThe construction of new utility scale solar energy projects and the panels are bound to result in some greenhouse gas emissions.
