Entries for Solar Prize Round 2

A "roofless" Hybridized Net Zero Energy (HNZE) Canopy delivering solar energy for users and rainwater for agricultural irrigation.

We propose to develop solar modules and balance of system components optimized for near-vertical installations for the cell tower industry.

THE MAIN PURPOSE OF THE PROJECT SHALL BE TO IMPROVE POWER CONVERSION EFFICINCY, SAFETY AND FIELD ENERGY OUTPUT, PHTOVOLTAICS TECHNOLOGY.

Off grid trailer with energy to feed 100 people/hour, 24/7 For disaster relief and vendors with cooking, power, sanitation & cold storage

"Sunrise-To-Sunset" solar panel with more power per sqft, lower cost, smaller footprint & less battery demand than traditional panels.

The most powerful mobile solar generator possible. The Solarator will employ a large energy storage system and a utility grade inverter.

Modular Mobile Solar for Urban Infill

Up to 10x output vs. ground-based PV

Operation of (Li,Na,K)2CO3 TES at 1000K preventing decomposition ensures sale of Li2CO3 possible even after service of 30 years or more.

Validated our 3d solar design with 11% Glass CdTe Solar Triangles inverted at 50° in sub-panel arrangement and achieved 18.8 % Efficiency m²

Need to build a prototype for the solar rays water heater (US patent 10072637), so that manufacturers know what to build on a mass basis.

Focused CSP generates, contains, and converts solar energy much more efficiently than PV, or reflective CSP, and is smaller and less costly.
