Next Generation Solar Technology to Equip Inherent Advantages in Low Temperature and Long Lifespan

published 2021 年 06 月 01 日 9:30
Solar panel is a power generation system that converts sunlight into electricity, though like all mechatronic systems, excess heat creates impediments to the efficiency of power generation, and the blazing hot summertime can also become an enemy to photovoltaic modules. Australian scientists recently found out that the two new types of solar technology, singlet fission solar and tandem solar, are equipped with the advantage in low operating temperature, which helps to extend the lifespan of solar panels, and elevates commercial values to a great extent.  ...  more
