ABSTRACT / INHALTSTEXT
WITH RAPIDLY DECLINING COSTS AND SEEMINGLY UNLIMITED SUNSHINE, THE
CHOICE OF SOLAR IN AUSTRALIA SEEMS OBVIOUS. YET DESPITE ITS MANY
ADVANTAGES, HOMES WITH SOLAR REMAIN COMPLETELY DEPENDENT ON THE
ELECTRICITY GRID FOR RELIABLE SUPPLY, WHICH IN AUSTRALIA IMPLIES MOSTLY
COAL-FIRED GENERATION. INDEED, EVEN COUNTRIES THAT HAVE INVESTED HEAVILY
IN SOLAR, SUCH AS SPAIN AND GERMANY, HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO DEFLECT THE
TRAJECTORY OF FOSSIL FUEL DEPENDENCE. THE REASONS FOR THIS APPARENT
PARADOX ARE VARIED, AND THIS BOOK PROVIDES A DEEPER AND MORE NUANCED
UNDERSTANDING OF THE PRACTICAL APPLICATIONS OF PHOTOVOLTAICS (PV) IN
MODERN ELECTRICITY SYSTEMS. WHILE THE CONVENTIONAL LIFE-CYCLE ASSESSMENT
(LCA) BOUNDARIES AS PRESCRIBED BY THE IEA-PVPS PROVIDE A CONSISTENT
METHODOLOGY FOR COMPARING EVOLVING PV TECHNOLOGIES, THE NARROW
BOUNDARIES EXCLUDE MANY CRITICAL DOWNSTREAM ENERGY COSTS.SIMILARLY,
SIMPLE COST COMPARISONS OF PV VERSUS CONVENTIONAL POWER SOURCES OVERLOOK
THE SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC AND ENERGY COSTS OF INTERMITTENCY AND GRID
INTEGRATION. YET DISTRIBUTED STORAGE, WHICH COULD PROVIDE POTENTIALLY
VALUABLE NETWORK SUPPORT, IS FREQUENTLY GIVEN A LOW PRIORITY BY
ADVOCATES OF SOLAR. TREATING PV AS AN EXTENSION OF, RATHER THAN AS A
SUBSTITUTE FOR, THE FOSSIL FUEL ENTERPRISE ENABLES A MORE PRODUCTIVE
DISCUSSION OF PV’S POTENTIAL ROLE IN ELECTRICITY GENERATION. THE
SUNBURNT COUNTRY OF AUSTRALIA, WHICH HAS A MODERN ELECTRICITY SYSTEM, IS
AN IDEAL CASE STUDY FOR EXPLORING THE POTENTIAL OF SOLAR PV. WITH A
FOCUS ON ROOFTOP SOLAR, ENERGY STORAGE, GRID INTEGRATION, AND
ELECTRICITY SYSTEM ISSUES, ENERGY IN AUSTRALIA OFFERS VALUABLE INSIGHTS
INTO THE PRACTICAL CHALLENGES OF SOLAR POWER.ALTHOUGH MANY NATIONAL
ECONOMIES ARE ALREADY CONFRONTING A DOWNWARD TREND IN ENERGY RETURN ON
INVESTMENT (EROI) OF OIL AND GAS FROM BOTH CONVENTIONAL AND
UNCONVENTIONAL SOURCES, THE LARGE-SCALE DEPLOYMENT OF LOW-EMISSION
ENERGY SOURCES THAT LIE BELOW A CRITICAL MINIMUM EROI THRESHOLD MAY
ULTIMATELY PROVE COUNTER-PRODUCTIVE
DIESES SCHRIFTSTUECK WURDE MASCHINELL ERZEUGT.

Ill., graph. Darst. txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier SpringerBriefs in Energy With rapidly declining costs and seemingly unlimited sunshine, the choice of solar in Australia seems obvious. Yet despite its many advantages, homes with solar remain completely dependent on the electricity grid for reliable supply, which in Australia implies mostly coal-fired generation. Indeed, even countries that have invested heavily in solar, such as Spain and Germany, have been unable to deflect the trajectory of fossil fuel dependence. The reasons for this apparent paradox are varied, and this book provides a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the practical applications of photovoltaics (PV) in modern electricity systems. While the conventional life-cycle assessment (LCA) boundaries as prescribed by the IEA-PVPS provide a consistent methodology for comparing evolving PV technologies, the narrow boundaries exclude many critical downstream energy costs.
