【 摘 要 】

In this paper, an analysis has been carried out to evaluate the life cycle cost and environmental cost of thin film amorphous silicon photovoltaic system. The annual energy from 1000 WP photovoltaic system has been calculated for composite climatic conditions of New Delhi. The cost of electricity generation per unit from thin film amorphous silicon with and without carbon credit has been determined as 0.17 and 0.20 US$/kWh respectively. The energy payback period for the system has been calculated approximately 12 years. The cost per kWh for thin film amorphous silicon is more economical in comparison with crystalline silicon photovoltaic system.
