How Efficient Are Tracking Solar Panels?

There are a few different types of solar panel motors and designs. To power the tracking of a farm of solar panels there are two main options: a central drive system featuring one tracking motor that powers multiple panels simultaneously.

Solar Panel Cleaning and the Importance of Preventative Maintenance

There are several challenges, mainly due to the area where the cleaning is needed. For example, in Saudi Arabia, there are a lot of sandstorms. Therefore, the panels need to be dry cleaned almost every day.

All-in-One Energy Storage System

When solar or shore power is available, the solar inverter charger can use the solar or shore power to charge the lithium iron phosphate batteries and keep the batteries topped off.

Understanding the Chemistries of Deep-Cycle Batteries

Advancements in battery chemistry and design have allowed deep-cycle batteries to deliver longer cycle life and higher capacity and cycle-up to full rated capacity faster than previous designs.

How Solar Drives the American Economy

The U.S. solar industry employs more than 230,000 workers, as of 2020, at more than 10,000 companies across every state. Imagine the possibilities, much like business leaders around the world are imagining today.

Innovations In End of Life Solar Panel Disposal & Recycling

Estimates are that approximately 8 million metric tons of solar panels will reach their end-of-life in the next nine years. That amount will increase to 80 million within 30 years. Where will they all go?

A Trip to the Swiss Village Where the World Calibrates Its Solar Monitoring Instruments

Measuring the energy of the sun precisely is not as easy as tracking distances or weight. To set an international standard for solar monitoring instruments radiometers, the World Radiation Centre holds comparison events that result in the World Radiometric Reference.

Decarbonisation Tech Instantly Converts CO2 to Solid Carbon

Researchers have developed a smart and super-efficient new way of capturing carbon dioxide and converting it to solid carbon, to help advance the decarbonisation of heavy industries.

Lead Batteries Will Help Power the Future

Compared to newer battery technologies, lead batteries are inexpensive to manufacture. According to the Department of Energy, lead batteries have a lower capital cost of $260 per kilowatt hour (kWh) compared to lithium at $271 per kWh.

With The Right Storage Solution, Energy Freedom Begins at Home

Franklin Whole Home has entered the residential energy-storage market with an eye to moving homeowners beyond energy security toward true energy freedom.

The Coming Home Energy Management (R)Evolution

Electrical hardware and software developments are pulling the residential energy storage system (ESS) market forward by enabling intelligent home energy management solutions that solve important problems for installers and customers alike.

Recent Unique Advances in the Applications of Solar Energy to Benefit Us on a Day to Day Basis

As civilization grows the energy needed to support our lifestyles increases daily, requiring us to find new innovative ways to use our renewable resources such as the sunlight to create more energy for our society to continue making progress.

MVRDV's "Sun Rock" Is A Built Manifesto for Taipower's Carbon-free Future

Anticipating Taiwan's planned transition to green energy, the features of the Sun Rock building, from its shape to its façade, are focused upon generating solar energy as efficiently as possible.

Innovations in End of Life Lithium-Ion Battery Disposal & Recycling

To make a lithium-ion battery, the components have to be mined and refined. Cathodes are built, and the batteries are manufactured. When those batteries no longer hold a charge, they have to be recycled to reclaim as many metals and plastics as possible.

Reducing Methane Emissions Through Reciprocating Generator Sets

Methane is classified as a type of biogas. The organic materials naturally produced by plants and animals are collected to be recycled for their methane content. An anaerobic digester is used to simulate the natural process that would break down those organic materials.
