As the demand for renewable energy sources continues to rise, photovoltaic (PV) technology has emerged as a key player in the global energy issues. PV solar cells are specifically engineered to absorb solar photons effectively, yet only a fraction of the captured energy is converted into electricity. The remaining energy is dissipated as heat, causing solar modules to reach temperatures as high as 50-60 °C during real-world operation. However, this rise in temperature adversely affects both the power conversion efficiency and the lifespan of the solar cells. This work aims to provide an overview of the ongoing research and developments in the simulation of solar cells, thermal phenomena, and the modeling of radiative cooling in photovoltaics, highlighting the importance of accurate modeling for optimizing PV performance and addressing challenges in this domain. By developing a fully coupled opto-electro-thermal model, this research contributes to the advancement of solar cell design and optimization strategies.
