The astonishing rise of solar PV
25 years ago, solar PV was a hugely expensive, niche energy technology. Today, it’s one of the cheapest means of generating electricity worldwide and we’re installing Gigawatts every single day. It’s easy to take this for granted, perhaps – so here’s a light-hearted review of how it all happened.
An Introduction to Renewable Energy
A big topic for two hours! This is a whistlestop overview of all renewables - wind, solar PV, solar thermal, CSP, biomass, hydro and the marine technologies. The lecture covers technical, social and environmental aspects of each before looking at the more overarching challenges - scale, grid integration, economics, policy and speed of deployment.
