Abstract

Purpose: This paper presents a systematic literature review regarding economic feasibility studies and photovoltaic solar energy production. Methodology/Approach: To this end, publications from 2015 to 2019 were collected in two journal databases: Web of Science and Science Direct. In order to create a corpus more relevant to the aim of this research, a selection among the papers found was made respecting some established filters. Subsequently this refinement, the resulting corpus consisted of seventeen papers. Findings: A current matter discussed by the researchers was identified, regarding the study on the best photovoltaic system to be used for each user: whether batteries are the best option as a storage source, or the connection of the system to the network is the most adequate guarantee to meet demand. Research Limitation/implication: This review gives the present study a characteristic of bringing together what, within the mentioned period and in the searched bases, has been approached in different works that deal with the economic feasibility analysis regarding the photovoltaic solar energy production. Originality/Value of paper: can support the implementation of solar systems in peripheral locations where the technology is still little used.
