Abstract. Electricity has become the basic need for everyone, from industry to domestic.
Today electricity source still depends heavily on fossil fuels that soon will be diminished from
the earth in around 50 years. This condition demands us to find the renewable energy to
support our everyday life. One of the famous renewable energy sources is from solar,
harnessed by energy conversion device named solar cells. Countries like Indonesia are gifted
with an abundance of sunlight all the yearlong. The application of solar cells with its
photovoltaic (PV) technology harnesses the sunlight and converts it into electricity. Although
this technology is emerging very fast, it still has some limitation due to the current PV
technology, economic feasibility, and its environmental impacts. Life cycle assessment is the
method to analyze and evaluate the sustainability of PV system and its environmental impact.
This paper presents literature study of PV system from the cradle to grave, it begins with the
material choices (from the first generation and the possibility of the fourth generation),
manufacturing process, implementation, and ends it with the after -life effect of PV modules.
The result of this study will be the insights look of the PV system application in Indonesia,
from the best option of material choice, the best method of application, the energy payback
time, and finally the possible after life recycle of PV materials.
