PV accounted for around 46% of the newly added electricity generation capacity in the United States in 2022, a significant increase from the mere 4% it represented in 2010. As time passes, solar energy continues to be a growing industry, with more and more homes and businesses preferring it over more expensive and less environmentally conscious methods.
Where will it go from here?
In this blog, we’ll answer the following questions on future solar energy innovations:
- What is the newest technology in solar?
- What is the future technology for solar energy?
- What are the three 3 different technologies used to concentrate solar power?
- How is OWE leveraging new Solar technology?
What is the Newest Technology in Solar?
As of 2023, the perovskite solar cell is a new and emerging next-generation solar technology. Perovskite is made of a crystal structure with inorganic and organic components. It’s gained attention recently due to its low-cost manufacturing and high efficiency. Perovskite solar cells are unique by using a special class of material, perovskite, which is processed as a thin film.
Despite being the up-and-coming technology for solar panels, perovskite has received some negativity. They’re not currently commercially viable due to their limited operational lifetime. Even with perovskite solar cells on the rise, monocrystalline panels (silicon-based solar cells) continue to be viewed as the most energy efficient.
What is the Future Technology for Solar Energy?
Large-scale solar farms will continue to advance in 2023 and beyond. More and more countries have invested in renewable energy production, saving on costs and reducing dependence on fossil fuels.
Businesses and houses continue to turn to clean energy sources to improve their carbon footprint and reduce expenses. The number of rooftop solar systems, along with using batteries for solar energy storage, is predicted to rise in the following years. The growth of solar-based communities will allow businesses and households to share a single large-scale solar installation and bring more awareness to the environment.
What are the Three 3 Different Technologies used to Concentrate Solar Power?
The three leading technologies used to concentrate solar power are photovoltaics (PV), which takes direct sunlight to generate electricity; concentrating solar power (CSP), which uses converted energy from the sun’s rays (thermal energy) to drive utility-scale electric turbines; and solar heating and cooling (SHC) systems, which collect thermal energy to provide hot water and air heating or conditioning.
How is OWE Leveraging New Solar Technology?
Our World Energy will be launching our JA Solar Panels in late 2023. The JA Solar Panels are a high-quality solar energy brand with optimal performance even in challenging environmental conditions.
OWE stands with JA Solar Panels, recognizing their commitment to quality and certifications and accolades in ISO 9001 quality management systems and TUV Rheinland’s “All Quality Matters” award. JA Solar Panels are rigorously tested to ensure they’re compliant with international standards and industry regulations. We’re excited to begin providing their panels as a part of our solar power system installations.
