“…The sun can be used for heating potential as in Concentrated Solar Energy (CSP) systems, or photon energy in light beams can be used with photovoltaic (PV) systems (Busse and Dinter, 2016). Each system has its own advantages and can be compared with each other using Leveled Cost of Energy (LCOE) (Esram and Chapman, 2007).…”

Solar energy is an inexhaustible and pollution-free energy source that plays a significant role in the sustainable provision of energy services. The main purpose of this study is to examine the potential, current situation, future strategies, and policies of solar energy, which is a renewable resource in Azerbaijan. This study is research in which qualitative methods are used and within the scope of the study, literature review, systematic approach and inductive methods were used. In the study, Azerbaijan's policy towards solar energy has been examined based on the potential sources of solar energy, the current situation and the country's future strategies. Azerbaijan is slightly behind in the production of electricity from renewable energy sources. Along with all this, the most important strategic goals for the use of renewable and alternative energy sources in Azerbaijan have been defined. Thus, by 2030, the share of renewable energy investment in the country's total energy balance to 30% has been determined as the main goal. As a result of the study, it can be said that solar energy policies will have a positive effect on the country's economy in the coming years, since Azerbaijan has a geographical location and an infrastructure system that can be delivered to the countries in need.

“…Like most renewable energy systems, there is a need to store the generated energy to be used when the energy source, which is the heat from the sunlight in this case, is not available. For CSP systems, the heat energy can be stored in liquid salt (Busse and Dinter, 2016). Based on the research conducted by Grobbelaar et al (2014), it was found that it will eventually be the case such that CSP technology will be able to overtake traditional power generation systems.…”

“…Thus, there is an opportunity to consider the effect of adding solar power generation to increase the target set out by the government in the "Electricity for all" programme. The sun can be used for its heating potential as is the case for Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) systems or the photon energy within the light beams can be harnessed with photovoltaic (PV) systems (Busse and Dinter, 2016). Each system has its merits and can be compared against each other using the Levelized Cost of Energy (LCOE) (Esram and Chapman, 2007).…”

his paper presents an overview of the recent development trends of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and the performance in the Tanzanian context. The two types of solar power generation that are considered in this paper are: i) solar PV systems and ii) concentrated solar power (CSP). The two are compared in terms of cost of energy and energy storage mechanism. Moreover, the effect of ambient temperature on the solar PV module is analyzed. In addition, a detailed analysis on using solar axis tracking to increase the power generation is also presented. The extent to which the cell surface temperature and orientation of the solar module which determine the power generation is modeled. Since Tanzania has the possibility to utilize the solar irradiance in the Coastal region to generate solar power, and therefore it is selected as the case study in this paper.
