[December 16, 2009] Organic Solar Photovoltaic Market Outlook (M2 PressWIRE Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/283d44/organic_solar_phot) has announced the addition of the "Organic Solar Photovoltaic Market Outlook" report to their offering. Solar power is the technology of obtaining usable energy from the light of the Sun. Solar energy has been used in many traditional technologies for centuries and has come into widespread use where other power supplies are absent, such as in remote locations and in space. Photovoltaics (PV) is the field of technology and research related to the application of solar cells for energy by converting sunlight directly into electricity. Due to the growing demand for clean sources of energy, the manufacturing of solar cells and photovoltaic arrays has expanded dramatically in recent years. An organic photovoltaic cell (OPVC) is photovoltaic cell which uses organic electronic materials for light absorption and charge transport. The single layer device structure of OPV cells is comprised of a transparent electrode/organic photosensitive semiconductor/electrode. This report examines the solar PV industry, discusses OPV cells, the processes involved, how they function, and provides case studies of organizations successfully using organic photovoltaics. Key Topics Covered: - Executive Summary - Introduction to Solar Power - Overview - A Look at the Utility of Solar Power - Daylighting - Introduction to Solar Photovoltaics - Overview - Applications of Solar PV - Stand Alone PV Systems - Introduction to Organic Photovoltaics - Introduction - Are Traditional Solar Cells better than Organic PV Cells? - OPVC Production Impacts - Introduction - Processing Techniques for OPVCs - Case Studies - National Solar Technology Roadmap - Major Players - Appendix - Glossary - About the Publisher - List of Figures and Tables - Figures - Tables - Companies Mentioned For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/283d44/organic_solar_phot ((Comments on this story may be sent to info@m2.com)) (c) 2009 M2 COMMUNICATIONS [ Back To the Online Project Management Community's Homepage ]
