Samenvatting:
Recent studies give the impression of photovoltaics having considerable
environmental impact. Looking closer at the data however, it is clear
that these studies are based on photovoltaic systems of the late eighties,
with only minor recalculations. Since the photovoltaic market has increased
rapidly, a lot of progress has been made regarding the environmental
profile of photovoltaics. In this article Mariska de Wild-Scholten and
Erik Alsema report on the improvements already achieved, those expected
in the near future and the issues that need to be tackled for the development
of crystalline silicon photovoltaics. They focus the discussion on multicrystalline
silicon solar cells, the technology with the largest market share at
present.
