I am responsibility a project on the energy usage of solar cells. Other than pollution, because it is a category in itself, what are the environmental factors when using solar cells?

You don’t have to use unique water to clean rooftop solar panels. You can just hose them down.
Other than what was already said (temperature, pollution), weather of course. Solar cells are only 50% of their full capacity when it is cloudy.
And of course the obvious – time of day. They don’t work at night. None whatsoever. Solar energy is clean, infinite, and renewable. The only downside to solar energy is that it is expensive. In time, I believe that it will become more cost-effective.
I came accross a new, proven and tested home made wind power system and solar power system which eliminates our electricity bills. It was written by a Renewable energy enthusiasts Michael Harvey the diy called Earth4energy. You can get your copy to save energy and help environment while eliminating your power bills.
