How to Design a Shading Free Solar System Layout
When you’re about to start planning and designing a new large-scale solar project, it is important to take shading and energy losses into account. The goal of large-scale solar plants is to generate as much energy as possible. All the energy that has been generated will be converted into power that can be used by families, companies or solar car parks, for example. For this reason, it ...

Demonstration of a 33% efficient Cassegrainian Solar Module
Abstract The Cassegrainian solar concentrator module concept we shall describe here uses a primary and a dichroic secondary mirror to split the solar spectrum into two parts and direct the infrared and near visible portions of the spectrum to two separate cell locations. An efficiency of 32.9% (STC) is reported measured outdoors for a solar concentrator PV module using InGaP/GaAs dual junction ...

Solar Module Shortage is No Problem with Array Technologies’ Flexible Installation Capability
No Modules, No Panic. With U.S. solar developers and site owners scrambling to get module orders shipped to sites ahead of the ITC step-down at the end of the year, panel shortages are becoming commonplace. In fact, Reuters even reports that the need for speed is prompting some developers to stockpile panels to make sure their projects will qualify for the 30 percent tax credit.1 The demand is ...

Photovoltaic string disconnect switches
PV system arrays generate DC current. The solar modules are wired in series, and the system voltage is the sum of the maximum output voltage of all of the modules in a string. 600 Vdc maximum was chosen as an optimal system voltage to reduce installation costs by reducing conductor size and to stay below the 600V threshold in NEC Article 490. Prior to the growth in the number of installed PV ...
