Question

What are the disadvantages of photovoltaic cell?

Answer 1

Hey Mate..

Disadvantages

Some toxic chemicals, like cadmium and arsenic, are used in the PV production process. These environmental impacts are minor and can be easily controlled through recycling and proper disposal.

Solar energy is somewhat more expensive to produce than conventional sources of energy due in part to the cost of manufacturing PV devices and in part to the conversion efficiencies of the equipment. As the conversion efficiencies continue to increase and the manufacturing costs continue to come down, PV will become increasingly cost competitive with conventional fuels.

Solar power is a variable energy source, with energy production dependent on the sun. Solar facilities may produce no power at all some of the time, which could lead to an energy shortage if too much of a region's power comes from solar power.

Hope it helped ❤️

Answer 2

Disadvantages of photovoltaic cell:-

Disadvantages of Photovoltaic Cells: The efficiency of solar panels is low compared to other renewable sources of energy. Energy from the sun is intermittent and unpredictable and can only be harnessed in the presence of sunlight. ... Photovoltaic panels are fragile and can be damaged relatively easily.
