Abstract

The background of efficiency improvement and application prospects of solar PV power generation reflects a dynamic and evolving landscape. As technology continues to advance and as society places greater emphasis on sustainability and clean energy, solar PV is expected to play an increasingly significant role in meeting the world’s energy needs while mitigating the environmental impact of energy production. This paper is mainly about how to improve the efficiency of solar photovoltaic power generation and the application of solar power generation. We put together an article mainly by looking up technology and summarizing other people’s opinions. Among them, we have studied the principle of solar power supply systems in the first part. The author analyzed how to choose monocrystalline silicon and polysilicon and how they can improve the efficiency and the use of HJT batteries and PERC solar cells. Both HJT and PERC applications can greatly improve efficiency
