The technology of CoolEarth Solar has developed a technology that uses a row of balloons that concentrate and capture solar energy, without using expensive infrastructure or large amounts of silicon. The inflatable sensors capture light and concentrate it in photovoltaic cells, increasing the energy that impacts on the cells many times. Recently a small company with big dreams called Cool Earth has been promoting innovative solar designs that are leaving in the past the traditional solar panels. Technology has many benefits not only in costs but also in installation but above all in generation friendly treatment with the environment. This company is promoting the so-called solar globes, which could be considered an alternative with the 3b good, beautiful and cheap, before the costs that some cases are incurred with panels The technology of CoolEarth Solar has developed a technology that uses a row of balloons that concentrate and capture solar energy, without using expensive infrastructure or large amounts of silicon. The inflatable sensors capture light and concentrate it in photovoltaic cells, increasing the energy that impacts on the cells many times. A series of concentrators are suspended in a support and control the cables that extend between the poles. As the concentrators are suspended, vast areas of land can be used for the production of solar energy, with a limited environmental impact. A Clean Energy XXI report states that the design costs 400 times less per area collected than conventional mirrors, withstood winds of 100 m.p.h and protect the surface of the mirrors and the receiver from rain, insects and dirt. Each balloon, two meters in diameter, can generate 500 watts of electricity and could eventually cost less than $ 2. With low maintenance and replacement costs, the system will significantly reduce the costs of solar energy to levels where it would directly compete with fossil energy sources. The technology will offer new economic opportunities for farmers, who will be able to "harvest" electricity, in addition to growing crops.Ecoportal.net Clean Energy XXI http://energialimpiaparatodos.com If you find this note interesting, do not hesitate to share it.
