Increasing the efficiency of photovoltaics is a primary goal in solar cell technology.
How to cool down solar panels.
The amount of gel needed to cool down solar panels depends on the humidity in the area.
A more humid environment that has about 80 humidity would only need 0 3 kilograms per 1 square meter panel.
The evaporating water would cool the solar panel as sweat evaporating from the skin cools us down.
When sunlight hits your house it warms your roof and pushes heat into your home.
The idea is simple.
For example a desert environment that has about 35 humidity would only require 1 kilogram of gel to cool down a 1 square meter panel.
The researchers found that the amount of gel they needed depended primarily on the environment s.
