Abstract
Around the globe, the demand for energy is increased abruptly to fulfill the demand all nations are looking after alternate energy resource. From the last decade, solar energy is more popular among other resources. In this paper, a review is presented in the view of material used for the design and fabrication of solar cell along with existing technologies. Therefore, this review is important, as the review suggest material and available technologies to improve overall efficiency of solar cell as well as performance in theoretical and practical manner considering cost and life of solar cell. Apart from this, the study also focuses on cooling factor and solar tracking system for the better efficiency and performance of solar cell.
