“…The difficulty caused by the discrepancy between the crystal lattice parameters of CdTe and CdS (~5%) is largely overcome by simple temperature treatment of the already fabricated CdTe/CdS structure. It is believed that, in this case, the mutual substitution of S and Te atoms occurs, and a CdTe1−xSx transition layer with a reduced density of states is formed at the CdTe -CdS interface, which can negatively affect the SC efficiency [1,9].…”

“…It has been shown that the total emission of cadmium in the life cycle, normalized to GW h of generated electrical energy, is much less than in coal production and much less than at nuclear generation or photovoltaic panels based on silicon [51]. The management of cadmium in the workplace consists of combining and adhering to appropriate engineering and chemical hygiene practices [9].…”

An analysis of the use of semiconductor solar cells based on thin-film cadmium telluride (CdTe) in power engineering is carried out. It is shown that the advantages of thin-film technology and CdTe itself as a direct-gap semiconductor open up the prospect of large-scale production of competitive CdTe solar modules. The physical and technical problems of increasing the efficiency of CdS/CdTe heterostructure solar cells, which are significantly inferior to the theoretically possible value in mass production, are discussed. The state of CdTe thin-film solar cells, which make CdTe a suitable material for ground-based photoelectric conversion of solar energy, the historical development of the CdTe compound, the application of CdTe thin films, the main methods and strategies of device production, device analysis and fundamental problems related to the future development of thin-film modules based on cadmium telluride.

“…Nowadays the perspectives and problems of the development of renewable energetics are studied by a lot of scholars as in the context of technological innovations for the development of this branch [1,2,3], so as in the context of investigation economic and management preconditions of the establishment of renewable energetics [4,5,6,7,8]. At the same time strategic prerequisites of the development of the given branch have not been studied sufficiently, in particular external factors of influence the establishment perspectives of renewable energetics.…”

The article analyses tendencies in changes in power supply volumes in world countries for the last years. We identified tendencies in changes of power supply volumes in the context of different sources of its production. We studied the tendencies of development of renewable energetics in the world and in Ukraine. We based the potential of the development of renewable energetics in the world and in Ukraine. We conducted complex analysis of strategic perspectives of the development of renewable energetics in Ukraine on the basis of PEST-analysis. We also based the main trends of strategic changes in the industry in the framework of the most powerful external factors of influence the development of renewable energetics. We offered the complex of strategic measures within the limits of the most influential environmental factors within PEST-analysis
