Snow Loss Reduction of Photovoltaic Systems by Pulse Heating Technique

Sector: Education • Location: Boone, North Carolina, United States of America

Source: Department of Energy (DOE)

Project
Closed

This project will accelerate snow sliding off photovoltaic (PV) modules to prevent energy production loss in winter. To remove snow from modules, the team will place a heating strip at the bottom of the module frame and water-repellant tape where the frame and glass meet. This snow-removal method could be more cost-effective compared to mechanical snow removal and other conventional methods. Appal
