The outer surface of these efficient structures serve as photovoltaic generators, converting solar radiation directly into electricity for heating, cooling and other needs.

Many Parties provided information on alternative energy resources and mentioned that these include photovoltaic, solar thermal, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, oil shale, and biomass energy.

India, for example, has large renewable energy programmes and exports renewable energy systems and products, such as wind powered generating systems and photovoltaic cells.

Many Parties provided information on alternative energy resources and mentioned that these include photovoltaic, solar thermal, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, oil shale, and biomass energy.

Two ad hoc expert groups on the prospects for a regional electricity network, (fourth quarter, 1995) and solar thermal and photovoltaic systems (fourth quarter 1994).

Telecom Australia has used photovoltaic technologies since the 1980s for telecommunications while economic incentives have been used nationally to encourage demand for solar hot water systems.

The Solar Challenger was made to serve as a symbol that photovoltaic cells can produce real power and will be part of the world's energy future.

Although silicon s light absorbing properties are suitable for photovoltaic devices, the near 0.5 volts that it generates is too weak to split water in a solar fuel generator.

Building integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) are photovoltaic materials that are used to replace conventional building materials in parts of the building envelope such as the roof, skylights, or facades.

Emphasizing that the World Solar Programme 1996 2005 is aimed at encompassing all forms of new and renewable energy, including solar, thermal, photovoltaic, biomass, wind, hydro, tidal, ocean and geothermal forms,

The project is often credited for leading to the boom in manufacturing of photovoltaic panels in China, which has dethroned Germany and the United States to become the world s largest producer.

For example, Germany s ongoing nuclear phase out has been complemented by accelerated renewables implementation, with up to 3,000 MW of solar photovoltaic capacity connected to Germany s power grid in a single month.

In the energy sector, the reports emphasize achievements in the promotion of renewable energies (development of photovoltaic systems and alternatives to petroleum) and improved stoves, which help to reduce consumption of woody fuels.

Regarding the African region, considerable efforts are being made to promote renewable energy sources (development of photovoltaic systems and alternatives to oil) and improve hearths, all of which help to reduce exploitation of wood fuel.

In the wake of Israel's signing of the Kyoto Protocol, a number of complementary draft provisions had been issued in 2004 to improve the clean energy market and the use of photovoltaic cells in particular.

Well designed feed in tariff programs offer investors the transparency, longevity, and certainty that they seek and these incentives have backed approximately 75 of solar photovoltaic capacity and 45 of wind capacity built worldwide through 2008.

In 2005, Spain became the first country in the world to require the installation of photovoltaic electricity generation in new buildings, and the second (after Israel) to require the installation of solar water heating systems in 2006.

How metals are classified is significant, since it will determine the weight of the administrative burdens that international regimes place on photovoltaic manufacturers and biomass companies, with the possibility of biomass fuel being described as hazardous waste.

The reports emphasize achievements in the promotion of renewable energies, such as the development of photovoltaic systems and alternatives to oil based fuels, as well as improved stoves, all of which help to reduce over consumption of woody fuels.

But, while Greece cannot reasonably hope that large scale deployment of photovoltaic systems will turn it into the Saudi Arabia of solar electricity, Schäuble is right to point out that producing it in Greece makes more sense than producing it in Germany.

China Further to the announcement of a subsidy program for BIPV projects in March 2009 offering RMB20 watt for BIPV systems and RMB15 watt for rooftop systems, the Chinese government recently unveiled a photovoltaic energy subsidy program the Golden Sun Demonstration Project .

As discussed above, considerable progress has already been made in the area of solar energy for photovoltaic systems as electric power sources, and its application in some SIDS shows that it is a feasible and viable source of energy for the future.

A solar home system connects a photovoltaic panel to florescent lightbulbs, radio, and even TV, via a battery and load controller. A World Bank study has shown that a 20 watt solar home system can cut monthly kerosene consumption in rural households by roughly 15 liters.

The IEA has identified certain HS codes on the APEC list as currently valid for renewable energy equipment, e.g. solar collectors, PV panels and wind chargers, and has argued for the inclusion of other items, e.g. small hydro electric plants, photovoltaic generators and biomass related equipment.
