Advantages and disadvantages of photovoltaic power generation

Advantages and disadvantages of photovoltaic power generation are as follows:

Benefits of photovoltaic power generation:

1. green energy: photovoltaic power generation is a kind of green energy, which does not need to burn fossil fuels, reduces energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions, and helps to protect the environment and reduce air pollution.

2. Renewable energy: sunlight is a kind of renewable energy, and photovoltaic power generation system can generate electricity continuously, reducing dependence on limited natural resources.

3. Energy saving and emission reduction: The photovoltaic power generation system can store excess electric energy and release it when needed, thus achieving the effect of energy saving and emission reduction.

4. Reduce energy costs: Photovoltaic power generation can be self-sufficient, reduce dependence on traditional energy and reduce energy costs. 5 Long service life: The service life of photovoltaic panels is generally more than 20 years.

Disadvantages of photovoltaic power generation:

1. Higher cost: The equipment and installation cost of photovoltaic power generation system is high, which requires certain investment.

2. Affected by the weather: the power generation efficiency of photovoltaic power generation system will be affected by the weather, such as rainy weather, night and other time periods, the power generation efficiency will be reduced.

3. Space occupation: The photovoltaic power generation system needs to be installed on a spacious floor or roof, which requires a certain amount of space, and there is a certain space occupation problem.

4. Limited energy storage technology: photovoltaic power generation system needs to be equipped with energy storage equipment, but the current energy storage technology needs to be further improved. To sum up, the installation of photovoltaic power generation has the advantages of environmental protection, renewable, energy saving and emission reduction, but it also has some disadvantages such as high cost, being affected by the weather and occupying space.
