The previous literature review reveals a well-established environmental impacts assessment of the solar PV systems is crucial. Currently, there is a gap in the literature regarding the impact of different PV system components on the environment.
The production of hazardous contaminates, water resources pollution, and emissions of air pollutants during the manufacturing process as well as the impact of PV installations on land use are important environmental factors to consider.
This review examined the many environmental factors that influence solar PV performance. The individual and combined effects of several key factors must be understood and mitigated to optimize PV output: solar irradiance, temperature, cloud cover, dust and pollutants, snow cover, albedo, and extreme weather events. Some of the key findings are:
PV systems cannot be regarded as completely eco-friendly systems with zero-emissions. The adverse environmental impacts of PV systems include land, water, pollution, Hazardous materials, noise, and visual. Future design trends of PV systems focus on improved design, sustainability, and recycling.
When avoided environmental impacts are credited to the PV system, abiotic depletion of resources can be expected to reduce greatly, as can the toxicity impacts, which are heavily influenced by metal processing chains. The future projections of impacts are uncertain.
The global inventory of PV installations used in this study is obtained from Kruitwagen et al 37., who located PV installations globally based on remote sensing imagery and machine learning. This inventory includes 68,661 PV facilities with detailed geometries and features, focusing on installations larger than 10 kW.
