GMG has explored further applications for THERMAL-XR® coating for solar panels with positive results – achieved temperature reduction of 20% and 4.6% higher energy output on in-house testing and assessment.
When sunlight hits the front of the solar panel, some of it is absorbed by the photovoltaic cells and converted into electricity, while a portion is converted into heat. This heat spreads throughout the panel, increasing its temperature. Because the back of the panel is typically where the actual PV cells are mounted, a rise in temperature at the back of the panel can directly impact the efficiency of these cells. The application of THERMAL-XR® to the back side of the solar panel enables greater heat dissipation.
GMG is now exploring further testing and market feedback.
