Innovative Strategies for Enhancing Solar Energy Efficiency in Power Plants: A Comprehensive Review

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Solar energy has emerged as a vital component of the global renewable energy landscape due to its sustainability and abundance. Nevertheless, the conversion efficiency of solar power plants has been relatively low which has been a major barrier to widespread adoption. In this review, current strategies and emerging technologies that improve solar energy efficiency are synthesised. Advanced photovoltaic materials, solar tracking systems, hybrid solar integration, thermal energy storage, concentrated solar power (CSP) systems and AI based optimization are some of the topics. It is also discussed in terms of economic viability and environmental impacts. In this paper we give an overview of the technological advancements that will drive the future of efficient solar power generation.
