Abstract: The rapid advancement of photovoltaic (PV) technologies has transformed solar energy systems into intelligent, high-efficiency platforms. This review systematically examines next-generation PV materials, hybrid system architectures, and intelligent control strategies. Key technologies include perovskite-based tandem cells, N-type TOPCon, bifacial, heterojunction (HJT), and photovoltaic-thermal (PVT) systems. These innovations overcome the intrinsic limitations of conventional P-type silicon panels by reducing recombination losses, mitigating light- and temperature-induced degradation, and enhancing energy yield under real-world operating conditions. At the system level, AI-enabled inverters, adaptive maximum power point tracking (MPPT), predictive maintenance, and real-time grid interaction enable dynamic optimization under variable irradiance, thermal stress, and load fluctuations. A critical comparison across diverse deployment environments highlights current challenges, including manufacturing complexity, material stability, and AI data-quality limitations. Despite higher upfront costs and system complexity, these advanced PV systems offer superior long-term performance, improved reliability, and reduced levelized cost of electricity through lower degradation rates and enhanced operational resilience. Collectively, intelligent, material-optimized PV technologies represent a scalable, sustainable, and grid-compatible solution for solar energy deployment across diverse climates, supporting the global transition toward low-carbon energy infrastructures.
