This textbook provides students with an introduction to the
fundamentals and applications of solar photovoltaic systems,
connecting the theory of solar photovoltaics and the practical
applications of this very important source of energy. Chapters are
written concisely in straightforward language that provides clear
explanations of the concepts and principles, with an emphasis on
humanitarian applications of photovoltaic systems and a focus on
relatively small size systems that will make the book relatable to
readers. It begins with an introduction and overview of the
fundamentals of solar cell fabrication, module design, and
performance along with an evaluation of solar resources. The book
then moves on to address the details of individual components of
photovoltaic systems, design of off-grid, hybrid, and distributed
photovoltaic systems, and grid-tied photovoltaic systems based on
the National Electrical Code (NEC). Coverage also includes a
techno-economic analysis of solar photovoltaics, a discussion of
the challenges and probable solutions of photovoltaic penetration
into the utility grid, and an exploration of the potential of
photovoltaic systems. Photovoltaic Systems: Fundamentals and
Applications is designed to be used as an introductory textbook and
professional training manual offering mathematical and conceptual
insights that can be used to teach concepts, aid understanding of
fundamentals, and act as a guide for sizing and designing practical
systems.

The Sun, Energy, and Climate Change conveys one central idea - that
we can utilize energy without continuing to harm the planet by
increasing our reliance on energy from the sun. This accessible
guide stresses the sun's importance as our ultimate energy source
by focusing on climate change from an energy perspective and
explains the naturally balanced energy transfer from the sun to the
earth and society's consumption of this energy. This book is for
anyone worried about environmental damage from our reliance on
fossil fuels and the global fight against climate change. The key
message being we do not have to accept the inevitable and can work
to prevent the worst.
