Solar parks

Reflectors in the module field increase solar yields

-

The new technology from Plusampere promises up to 30 per cent higher yields. The use of the reflector system requires careful planning. It is just as suitable for new solar parks as it is for retrofitting.

Alpine solar generators

Results of the test facility at Totalp near Davos are out

-

Photovoltaic systems in the Alps produce up to two times more solar power than generators in the lowlands. In winter, actually even more. But it depends on the system configuration.

Vertical agri-PV plant wins Austrian Solar Prize 2023

-

G&G Sonnenstrom built its agri-PV system with Next2Sun technology. But it was more than the dual-use option that convinced the jurors to award the project with the Solar Prize.

New portfolio for solar cables

-

Modern solar power systems produce significantly higher outputs than they did a few years ago. However, the high system voltage also requires more powerful and durable cables and components made of high-quality materials.

Solar maintenance:

How air pollution influences the yield of solar power arrays

-

A joint study by the Leibniz Institute and the German Weather Service has shown that the yields of solar systems installed in different regions vary greatly in some cases. Dust particles in the air have a major influence.

Winter solar:

Solar plant on alpine dam provides plenty of clean electricity in winter

-

The system on the dam wall of Lake Albigna in the Swiss Alps has been in operation for six months. The yields of the first winter confirm the positive forecast of the planners.

Space exploration:

Start-up Sald will supply solar panels for space vehicles

-

Because they make solar modules more efficient and more durable, solar coatings as thin as a few layers of atoms will allow the construction of new types of space capsules.
