Rooftop solar photovoltaics can be considered an effective solution for urban energy management to solve urban energy requirements and environmental problems .
Urban spaces are categorized based on their suitability for the solar photovoltaic deployment, enhancing the versatility of solar PV. Ground surfaces, such as roads, side walks, parks, and parking lots, offer expansive areas that receive direct sunlight, making them suitable for solar PV installations.
Panos and Margelous suggest that a household's ability to efficiently use energy generated from solar PV also plays a role in adoption. Komatsu et al. conducted a study in Bangladesh and found that households with installed batteries are more likely to use solar PV as it can provide the opportunity to store energy for later use. 3.2.7.
Approximately 35% of the studies included in the review examined social factors and their impacts on consumers' willingness to adopt solar PV. Peer-effect has frequently been found as an important social indicator influencing individuals' choice to use solar PV.
In developed countries, energy is universally available, and the choice of solar PV is driven by factors such as self-sufficiency, savings on bills, and environmental or related considerations. Since energy needs are met through the electricity supply from the grid, the decision to use solar PV becomes somewhat secondary.
