- Company Profile:
A charge controller that redirects all charging current as the battery nears full state-of-charge.
Industry:Energy
The voltage levels (activation) at which the charge controller disconnects the photovoltaic array from the battery or the load from the battery.
Industry:Energy
The average amount of solar radiation that reaches the earth's upper atmosphere on a surface perpendicular to the sun's rays; equal to 1353 Watts per square meter or 492 Btu per square foot.
Industry:Energy
A method of growing large size, high quality semiconductor crystal by slowly lifting a seed crystal from a molten bath of the material under careful cooling conditions.
Industry:Energy
The use of solar thermal energy or solar electricity to power a cooling appliance. Photovoltaic systems can power evaporative coolers ("swamp" coolers), heat-pumps, and air conditioners.
Industry:Energy
A chemical bond associated with an atom on the surface layer of a crystal. The bond does not join with another atom of the crystal, but extends in the direction of exterior of the surface.
Industry:Energy
Electromagnetic energy transmitted from the sun (solar radiation). The amount that reaches the earth is equal to one billionth of total solar energy generated, or the equivalent of about 420 trillion kilowatt-hours.
Industry:Energy
The number of consecutive days the stand-alone system will meet a defined load without solar energy input. This term is related to system availability.
