Quick – what is your solar output? If you are not familiar with this term, you probably understand solar panel efficiency. In general, an increase in efficiency means that the same amount of UV exposure will generate more solar electricity. It goes without saying that if you can produce more solar power with fewer solar [...]
One of the biggest questions people have when they are considering solar power is, how do clouds affect solar panels? For a definitive answer, the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (“NREL”) recently published a study after extensive research on the effect of cloud cover on solar power installations. NREL is a national laboratory that is part [...]
Most photovoltaic solar cells can only hope to achieve about 15-20% efficiency. Much of the solar energy that strikes the cells is either reflected away or lost as heat energy. But solar collectors at Kalahari Greentech have achieved 74% efficiency. The energy company that specializes in solar technology and wind energy research had its solar [...]
