Potential Environmental Impacts of Solar Energy Technologies

M. Srinivasan | A.Velu | B. Madhubabu

Abstract: Sun is prime supply of all energy within the world and be it the traditional sources of energy. Solar energy systems such as photovoltaic, solar thermal, solar power to provide significant environmental benefits in comparison to the conventional energy sources, thus contributory, to the sustainable development of human activities. Sometimes their wide scale preparation has to face potential negative environmental implications. These potential issues appear to be a powerful barrier for an extra dissemination of those systems in some customers. However, it might be foolishness to completely write away the negative impacts of solar technology, which becomes significant in large scale production scenario. To address with these issues this paper presents an overview of an Environmental Impact Assessment. It analyses the environmental impacts of solar energy technologies
