Photovoltaic chosen by the Italian


That the findings of market research institute IPR Marketing, based on research commissioned by the foundation Univerde, in collaboration with Fotowatio.

The research was conducted on the basis of 1003 people, velvety age, geographical origin and the number of people who lived there.

The study sought to understand the level of knowledge of the Italians regard to renewable energy, the feedback on the current government and opposition over how to address the issue, in addition to giving preference to the different types of renewable energy, starting from nuclear power until reach the solar and wind

Of these 1003 persons, 90% are convinced that we would need solar power more widely than it really is. Complain that there are not enough incentives, and they fear that the few available, go to disappear altogether.

In terms of household investments in this type of energy, 67% chose photovoltaics. There was an increase in energy production from 2009 to now own 13% (at the time were only 54% of people who installed solar panels).

The near-total majority of respondents were aware of the low environmental impact and safety of solar energy. 81% think, but above all hope that there will be an increase in the production of energy from the sun, and that connection is maintained by the government, to become one of the largest producing states of energy by using solar panels.

Only 57% knew of the existence of the law "Energy Account" that pays for energy produced from a plant at home.

Aware of the real costs only 30%.

Unfortunately, in many areas, even those who invest in solar or other renewable energy, is prevented by a series of laws, either for the landscape, as well as many town centers, or other reasons that vary from municipality to municipality. Limiting, in fact, the emergence of new plants, not to mention the usual slow pace of bureaucracy and the various and often prohibitive rules of the building.

Solar golf bride


The fight over green field on which the challenges are already a message that golf can be a sport "green" in name and fact. The green is not so new to golf lovers, but it is certainly a new plant built in the club: 190KWp guaranteeing autonomy to the structure in every respect: irrigation of the fields to the charging of golf carts and trolleys with electricity.

With incentives, the photovoltaic is worthwhile in the Aosta Valley.
The plant is the largest PV project installed in a structure like that in our country and has been operated by Upsolar Italy, a company that has joined the "Committed to Green", a circuit through which the Italian Golf Federation aims to promote renewable energy and sustainable choices, walking on the road to sustainability and attention to policies that take into account environmental protection.

The photovoltaic system put into operation in the Serra Golf Club of Valencia in the fall of Alexandria Upsolar will help create the conditions for sustainable development in all areas of life, and particularly the world of golf. Giuseppe D'Elia, Italy Country Manager Upsolar, Adnkronos explains that the goal is to export the Italian experience in other European nations and then the rest of the world.

To Alexandria is not the first example of a combination of sports and environmental protection: we have recently talked of the photovoltaic plant to be built on the roof of the stadium Sambenedettese, Abruzzo team that plays in the championship series D and calcium solar power is already entered in the life of Bentegodi, the stadium where they play Udinese (Serie A) and Hellas Verona (newly promoted to Serie B). Now the project of a golf course, thanks to a stand-alone photovoltaic system confirms the trend towards "green" of the sport made in Italy.

19.5 percent efficiency solar panels reached by Canadian Solar

The photovoltaic panels thanks to ELPS Canadian Solar reach a new level of "efficiency" energy that now almost 20 percent. A great result that, as the CEO Shawn Qu is designed "with a view to reducing production costs per watt."

The "problem" of photovoltaics has always been that of '"energy efficiency" or, simply, as a percentage, the energy "forfeit" in the solar panel "to" electricity. Until a few years ago this was the Achilles heel of the industry: the energy efficiency of the photovoltaic panels was very low and only in recent years came to an average of 15 percent, providing a cost-benefit cost. But the search goes on, and Canadian Solar, for example, one of the leading companies worldwide to operate in the solar energy market, has a new solar module with cells reaching a 19.5% energy efficiency.

The technology that allows this great technological step is the owner of the company and is called ELPS (Efficient, Long-Term Solution Photovoltaic). A dream until recently. For this Canadian Solar, in a sense, brings the energy efficiency "to the stars", and especially a star, our Sun, which promises free and inexhaustible energy at low cost. The new technology will be presented at the EU PVSEC 2011, the industry event that takes place in Hamburg from September 5 to 8.

This is not a prototype but a "preview" of the sale which will begin in the fourth quarter of 2011. The new solar panel technology is based on architecture-Metal-Wrap Through (MWT), which consists, as the company explains in a "moving front in the back electrode. The variation of the electrical connections favors a greater exposure of front surface to sunlight, resulting in increased levels of efficiency.

Shawn Qu, Chairman and CEO of Canadian Solar claims satisfied: "These modules provide our customers with a value much higher due to the significant increase in conversion efficiency and energy production provided. In addition, we worked with a view to reducing costs production per watt". The new solar modules will be available in two versions, mono and polycrystalline, with an output up to 265 watts.

Bio-based solar cell materials to reduce solar panel cost

The use of bio-based materials for solar cell materials have helped to cut the cost of making solar panels to get cheaper solar module on the commercial markets. The pioneer company of manufacture bio-based material solar cells, BioSolar, has sales rep agreement with Korean based company, ShinHa, which represent large Asian solar panel manufacturers and targeting the North American solar market.

The technology of bio-based solar cell materials are using renewable plant sources to make low cost of photovoltaic (PV) solar modules. The renewable plant sources are using to replace petroleum-based plastic solar cell materials with durable bio-based materials. The technology has also received USDA Bio-preferred certification.

The silicon solar panel prices continue to decline as a result of policies by the state for the development of the use of solar power. Even in the last two years, it's has dropped by 50 percent because of supply over demand.

Although not a major solar panel makers, the PV solar panel manufacturers in the U.S. still working to advance their solar technology and manufacturing strategies for Asia market especially. According to the research, the North America predicted to be the fastest growing solar panels market for next five years.

Algae to make bio-photovoltaic systems for home


The bio-photovoltaic systems using algae to convert sunlight into electricity for home are developing by Paolo Bombelli, a Cambridge University doctoral candidate which work together with two designers Alex Driver and Carlo Peralta. The concepts will use bio-photovoltaic to produce power with artificial photosynthesis which can produce power about 5-6 watts per square meters.

The designs are similar to lily pads which consists of algae-coated panels in each pad. It's will convert solar energy into electricity and save it along daytime. When the night, the system would able to work using excess electrons inside of algae cells which being stored during daylight.

The other design is solar masts covered by algae. The team chose algae because they can multiply rapidly. Algae will be used to collecting sunlight. The water for algae will be obtained from underground sources to get a self sufficient system. The Bio-photovoltaic masts also able to collect rain water which is required.

The plant-powered designs will be presented at the upcoming London design week. In the next few years, the bio-photovoltaic systems are expected to compete with conventional solar panels that already exist.
