Description
Summary:Solar energy is considered to be the most promising alternative source of energy and become the most popular of renewable sources being exploited in effort to reduce usage of non-renewable source as well as the issues contributed by non-renewable energy such as greenhouse gases. However, as the initial cost to build the stand-alone photovoltaic (SAPV) system is high and hence causes them hard to penetrate the market wider. Therefore this paper presents a study on life cycle assessment (LCA) of stand-alone photovoltaic (SAPV) system.
