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...
In order to understand how much electricity your solar panels can generate and how this might change over time, we need to understand the performance and efficiency of the solar system. • Solar system performance measures how much energy your solar panels are producing at any point in time or over a period of time (such as a day, a week, or a month). It is usually measured in watts (a unit of...
The Modern Energy Way With Solar Systems Solar panel systems are becoming more and more popular. Not only do these installations provide clean and sustainable energy that is much more efficient than traditional sources such as coal or natural gas, but they also have the potential to reduce your monthly electricity costs. Affordable Bills and Rates As mentioned above, solar panel systems have the p...
Many people have turned to off-grid solar system as a way to become less reliant on grid solar system and separate themselves from the ever-rising costs of electricity. But when you’re completely dependent on your own energy production to power your home, you must plan for your current needs and potential future needs. Keep reading to learn more about how to future-proof your off-grid batter...
In a world where power can be accessed from everywhere, is it important to know what an off-grid solar inverter is? What are the advantages of using one, and how does it work? What is an off-grid solar inverter? Solar inverters are useful devices that can help power off-grid systems. The three main solar inverters are grid-tied, off-grid, and hybrid inverters. A grid-tied inverter converts D...
Although when many think of solar energy, they picture solar panels on rooftops, there are in fact many different types of ways solar panels can be mounted. And If you are limited on unshaded roof top space, and have large land available, a ground mounted solar panel system might be the solution to your energy needs. Although most residential homes don’t necessarily have spare land, ground m...
Electricity prices are skyrocketing and home energy bills are getting more and more expensive. Most people are looking for ways to save money on their electricity bills. Either way, even if you can only save a small amount, it’s still a good thing. Many people choose to install solar panels on the roof of their house, which is a smart choice. And what about those renters or apartment owners ...
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...
At 18:16 on November 18, 2022, the largest single centralized (shared) energy storage power station in Hubei Province will be fully connected to the grid for power generation! The solar project covers an area of more than 20 acres, with a total installed capacity of 60MW/120MWh. The solar energy storage system includes two types: liquid cooling (capacity 30MW/61.9MWh) and air cooling (capacity 30....
