Preface of Solar Energy Engineering Processes and Systems [pdf].


The origin and continuation of humankind relies on photo voltaic vitality. Essentially the most primary processes supporting life on earth, resembling photosynthesis and the rain cycle, are pushed by photo voltaic vitality.

From the very starting of its historical past humankind realized {that a} good use of photo voltaic vitality is in humankind’s profit.

Regardless of this, solely not too long ago, over the past 40 years, has photo voltaic vitality been harnessed with specialised tools and used as a substitute supply of vitality, primarily as a result of it’s free and doesn’t hurt the surroundings.

The unique thought for scripting this Solar Energy Engineering Processes and System guide got here after a variety of my evaluation papers had been revealed within the journal Progress in Energy and Combustion Science.
