According to the International Energy Agency, more than 70,000 solar panels are installed every hour around the world. This rapid deployment is expected to grow year by year, and with it, the number of obsolete modules. Solar waste recycling programs and current global recycling policies are not ready to handle the increasing influx of panels. There is a need for a thoughtful and disciplined progr...

A new study details how floating photovoltaics affect wind flow and irradiance in a lake, and the effect on water temperature at different depths. However, the authors say more research is needed on how to design systems to maximize the benefits of the water bodies themselves. A team of researchers from the Fraunhofer Institute for Solar Energy Systems ISE and the University of Freiburg evaluated ...

A solar system can only work properly if the solar panels can capture energy. Solar panels need sunlight to generate energy using the photovoltaic effect. Sunlight travels to the panel in the form of photons. When a photon hits a solar cell, it dislodges electrons from the cell, creating electron space. Inside each cell are two wafers, one with phosphorus added to create free electrons and a negat...

The primary function of a solar racking system (also known as a solar mounting system) is to hold solar panels securely in place and to provide structural support and proper orientation for the solar panels. The following are the main functions of solar racking systems: 1. Structural support: Solar racking systems provide a strong and stable structure to support the weight of solar panels. They ar...
