Solar Farms

Problem: Tackling Heat Gain for Enhanced Solar Efficiency

In the expansive landscape of large solar farms, Schmetzer Industries identifies a critical challenge hindering optimal energy production—heat gain in solar panels leading to efficiency loss, commonly referred to as the heat gain coefficient or temperature coefficient. This phenomenon poses a significant obstacle in maximizing the potential of solar energy, impacting both the performance and sustainability of large-scale solar installations.

Solution: Introducing the Solar Panel Backing

Enter the innovative solution from Schmetzer Industries—the Solar Panel Backing. Currently undergoing thorough testing and trials, this revolutionary product incorporates advanced Phase Change Materials (PCMs) to actively address the heat gain challenge. By intelligently managing thermal dynamics, the Solar Panel Backing mitigates excess heat during peak conditions, ensuring a more consistent operating temperature. As a result, this groundbreaking technology not only addresses the heat gain coefficient but also aims to significantly enhance the overall efficiency of solar panels in large farms. Schmetzer Industries is actively seeking forward-thinking partners to join us on this transformative journey, collaboratively developing a solution that propels large solar farms into a more efficient, sustainable, and resilient future. Together, let’s redefine the landscape of solar energy with innovation and collaboration at the forefront.
