A group of researchers led by Qatar Univerity has developed a spherical photovoltaic module that utilizes reflectors to increase solar energy harvesting. "We developed and experimentally demonstrated a practical module-scale spherical photovoltaic prototype comprising 450 monofacial silicon solar cells distributed over a 0.70 m diameter spherical substrate and integrated with a reflective base," corresponding author Amith Khandakar told pv magazine. "Unlike conventional flat PV modules, which have a single dominant surface orientation, the spherical geometry distributes photovoltaic cells over ...Den vollständigen Artikel lesen ...
