Prospects for the development of photovoltaic glass in Colombia

Can photovoltaic solar energy be used in Colombia?

This research work aimed to analyze the prospects for photovoltaic solar energy in Colombia. In the results, as a first measure, a conceptualization of solar energy, the development of photovoltaic panels, and the conditions required for installing this type of electricity generation module were carried out.

Is solar energy a problem in Colombia?

Taking into account that Colombia is mostly a desert area, what was presented above confirms the deficit of photovoltaic development in the ZNIs, that underutilize the solar resource and the great territorial extension. 4. Future picture of the solar energy

Can solar energy boost energy supply in Colombia?

In this sense, Serrano (2017b) carried out in Colombia an analysis of the use of solar energy for the future of the country as part of the general concern for the increase in the emission of polluting gases into the atmosphere and that it can boost energy supply through renewable sources.

What research has been done on photovoltaic solar energy?

For the year 2018, research on photovoltaic solar energy continued to be carried out, both about the design of isolated networks, as well as evaluations of solar energy potential and access to supplies for the implementation of this type of technology.

What is the solar energy potential in Colombia?

The potential of solar energy at a global level in Colombia is 4.5 kW h/m 2 /day and the area with an optimal solar resource is the Península de la Guajira, with 6 kW h/m 2 /day of radiation, surpassing the world average of 3.9 kW h/m 2 /day. In the referenced link , there is an interactive map of the radiation indices in Colombia by IDEAM.

Why did Salamanca design a photovoltaic solar energy system?

For its part, Salamanca (2017) designed a photovoltaic solar energy system to take advantage of the availability of this renewable resource in the city of Bogotá, as well as the availability of new technology and to mitigate the current difficult environmental conditions.
