This note serves as a foundational resource for exploring the dynamics and potential of addressing urban challenges in low- and middle-income countries (L&MICs) through rooftop solar PV adoption. It outlines the critical decision-making factors necessary for understanding the contexts in which...

This study evaluated how different SSP scenarios affect solar energy potential in Türkiye's GAP region by examining projected changes in surface downwelling shortwave radiation (RSDS), air temperature (Tas), and photovoltaic cell temperature (Tcell), along with their implications for...

In 2010, Bangladesh enacted rules mandating rooftop systems for consumers seeking to join the grid system for new domestic, industrial, and commercial electricity connections. After a decade, the first net metering policy was launched with further revisions of policies aimed at widening the...

Rapid global PV (photovoltaic) expansion driven by global decarbonization goals requires comprehensive life cycle environmental evaluation. This study applies a harmonized life cycle assessment (LCA) to seven representative PV modules across six installation scenarios, enabling consistent...
