But thanks to all the advancements mentioned above solar is set to become lighter more flexible and applicable everywhere.
Future solar panels.
Future solar technology modern day solar panels have a maximum efficiency of about 33 meaning that much of the sun s solar radiation goes to waste even under the most ideal circumstances.
In fact solar has reached prices today that are.
In 2018 solar generated about 1 5 of us electricity.
50 to 100 years ahead of what the iea forecast in its 2010 world energy outlook depending on how one extrapolates iea s forecasts from 2010.
Imagine all this tech is available and you visit another city.
10 to 15 years ahead of what i forecast in 2011.
The future of solar looks bright solar power was earlier generated only by means of ground mounted or rooftop panels.
Within the u s 17 of energy used was conducted through solar panels however that number is estimated to grow up to 48 by 2050.
7 to 10 years ahead of what i forecast in 2015.
This is a major obstacle that solar energy systems must overcome to achieve exponential growth in the energy industry.
The future of solar energy judging by the exponential influence solar energy has had throughout the world it s safe to say that the future looks very bright for it to expand further.
