Abstract
This systematic article synthesizes empirical evidence from four studies examining the application, performance, and economic feasibility of solar photovoltaic (PV) systems in residential buildings and aquaculture farms in Thailand. A structured review approach was used to extract data relating to system sizing, energy consumption, financial investment indicators, and technological principles of solar cells. Findings indicate that PV adoption is highly effective in both sectors, with residential buildings achieving payback periods of approximately 4–5 years, while shrimp farms,especially medium and large scale, demonstrate strong Net Present Value (NPV), Benefit-Cost (B/C) ratios above 1.6, and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) up to 19%. This review confirms that solar PV is economically viable and technologically adaptable under Thailand’s climatic conditions. Recommendations are offered for policymakers and future research.
