Photovoltaic Panel Heat Seekers: Solving Solar Efficiency Challenges in 2024
You've probably seen solar arrays gleaming in the sunlight, but did you know most photovoltaic (PV) panels lose 0.5% efficiency for every 1°C temperature increase above 25°C? This thermal derating phenomenon costs the solar industry over $2.3 billion annually in lost energy production according to a 2023 Gartner Emerging Tech Report. Enter photovoltaic panel heat seekers – advanced thermal management systems that could potentially revolutionize solar farm operations.
