Abstract

The present work consists of a brief bibliometric study about the innovation in solar energy generation technologies and their applications, using the Scopus database. Data were collected using computational tools, and focusing on the worldwide scientific production of the last decade. The scientific performance of solar energy as a whole, and topics related to photovoltaic energy and applications of solar energy systems were examined, verifying the variation of interest on these subjects over the years, symbolized by the number of documents present in the database each year. In addition, articles and patents relevant to the investigated terms were selected, an briefly discussed, in order to contextualize the scientific and technological panorama involving them. The results were quite diverse, with items presenting a high growth trend, such as the topic of perovskite solar cells, which showed an increase of about 850% in the submission of publications in 6 years in the SCOPUS database, and others presenting stability or decline, allowing a relevant discussion about what future this modality of renewable energy awaits, as well as its impact on human development.
