The exploration of alternative energy sources has been increasing due to higher fossil fuel consumption to meet the global energy demand. Various renewable energy sources, for instance, harvesting photons via solar energy, can be a possible approach to reduce fossil fuel consumption (Moheimani and Parlevliet, 2013).Solar technologies based on silicon solar cells (SSCs) were
In this study, a hybrid system containing two main sections is designed, optimized, and constructed to make wind power more sustainable. Power generation section contains wind turbine (WT), alkaline electrolysis system (AES), biodiesel generator (BDG), and proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), and water supply section for AES/PEMFC
The problem arisen by the low light weather is a shortage in the light absorber excitation and consequently, a shortage in the electricity production of the solar cells. It has been reported that application of CQDs that were produced from biomass in a solar cell, can result in electricity production in daylight and dark (Meng et al., 2017).
