So to accommodate these obstacles, a type of solar photovoltaic (solar PV) system had been developed which is known as rooftop solar PV systems. This is a type of solar PV system that involves the generation of electricity using solar panels mounted on the rooftops of residential, commercial or industrial buildings or structures.
•Rooftop Photovoltaic systems have a lower environmental impact than Grid/Load systems. In response to global environmental concerns and rising energy demands, this study evaluates photovoltaic (PV) technologies for designing efficient building rooftop PV systems and promoting sustainable energy integration.
The choice of photovoltaic (PV) technology—monocrystalline silicon (m-Si), polycrystalline silicon (p-Si), or thin film—plays a critical role in determining the performance and economic viability of rooftop PV systems. Each technology offers distinct advantages and limitations.
Additionally, rooftop PV systems can contribute to grid stability by providing distributed generation close to the point of consumption [7, 8]. However, despite the substantial benefits of rooftop PV systems, their successful integration into the existing power grid is crucial for maximizing their impact .
