Can a large set of PV solar panels be identified as positive samples?
Due to the prior participation in training U-Net with PV solar panel labels covering various background types such as cultivated land, forest land, artificial surfaces, deserts, mountains, and water bodies, in the first stage, a relatively rich set of PV solar panels could be identified as positive samples for the second stage classification.
We developed a new method to identify PV panels globally, producing an annual 20-meter resolution dataset for 2019–2022. This dataset offers unprecedented detail and accuracy for future research and policy-making. A two-stage PV classification framework was built using U-Net and positive unlabelled learning with random forest (PUL-RF).
Is residential solar PV preventing global upscaling?
In recent years, the cost of solar photovoltaics (PV) has declined sharply; however, residential solar PV (RSVP) continues to have many barriers preventing its global upscaling, except in some pioneering developed countries such as Germany and Sweden [6, 7].
Should households adopt solar photovoltaic technology?
Author to whom correspondence should be addressed. In recent years, research on the intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technology has yielded rich results. However, controversy still exists regarding the key antecedents of households' intention to adopt solar photovoltaic technologies.
