With the growing popularity of clean energy sources such as photovoltaic power generation, more and more businesses are installing photovoltaic power stations. While enjoying the benefits of photovoltaic power generation, power station owners should not neglect the maintenance and cleaning of their power stations at home. Correct maintenance and care will not only ensure the power generation capac...
Photovoltaic farms, also known as agriculture-photovoltaic complementarity,on grid system or off grid system/hybrid system, are agriculture-related projects that combine facility agriculture and photovoltaic power plants. It can be understood as a combination of photovoltaic power plants and facility agriculture construction. The use of farmland can realize multi-use and multi-productivity of one ...
On June 2, the Tarim Oilfield Branch of PetroChina announced that Tarim Oilfield had officially built 98 photovoltaic power stations in the hinterland of the Taklimakan Desert, realizing green irrigation on desert roads and completely saying goodbye to the history of diesel engine power generation irrigating vegetation on both sides of desert roads. Tarim Oilfield said that since January this year...
One of the most frequently asked questions by people interested in solar panels is at what time of the year is it more profitable to install a photovoltaic module for self-consumption. In reality, these types of installations pay for themselves over time. Any time is a good time to invest in it. However, the summer season, with its long hours of sunshine, is an ideal time to get down to business. ...
A team of scientists from the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has developed technology to convert old solar cell modules into energy-harvesting thermoelectric materials, which are capable of harvesting and converting heat for electrical energy. This technology aims to reduce the global waste generated by the silic...
With the rise of industrial and commercial electricity prices, the gradual process of industrial and commercial rooftop distributed solar panel power plants has become an important direction for future photovoltaic development. On the one hand, it helps enterprises reduce operating costs and improve efficiency, and on the other hand, it can contribute to the development of clean energy in the coun...
In recent years, the market for solar modules significantly changed from more or less exclusively ribbon-based interconnection of full-square solar cells to a wide variety of cell formats and interconnection technologies which continuously increased power outputs. One of those technologies is shingled cell technology, which uses overlapping thin cell strips assembled either horizontally or vertic...
Germany-based Solmax has developed a reflective membrane made of polyethylene resins and coated with a thin white polyethylene layer that reflects ultraviolet (UV) rays. The company claims the membrane can increase the energy yield of a bifacial solar panel project by between 5% and 20%, depending on the plant configuration. Germany-based company Solmax Geosynthetics GmbH, which supplies “ge...
