The transition to a low carbon society will not be possible without a major shift to renewables. Up to now the world is not set for a clear downward turn in emissions because most of the energy infrastructure continues to work in a business-as-usual scenario. With its strong reduction in LCOE, PV is at the forefront of new energy technologies to be a key contributor for change. PV benefits range from
local energy production to large power plants. In combination with other technologies, it expands its added value not only to cities, including buildings and mobility, but also to agriculture, water desalination and hydrogen production. According to the International Energy Agency, solar is now the cheapest form of electricity generation and soon will be the most important renewable energy technology in the world.
We bring to the readers of this special issue a special flavor of the richness of the most up to date scientific contributions from the PV community.
