Description
We all know that we use electricity and heat (thermal energy) in our homes. But you may be surprised to know that the majority of your total household energy consumption is for thermal energy (space heating and hot water). Power Panel supplies both electricity and heat at the same time. In fact, Power Panel captures heat by fluid cooling the PV cells - which then operate more efficiently as the temperature of the cells is reduced. For years solar energy has helped combat rising energy costs, concerns about climate change and fossil fuel dependence. Unfortunately, traditional solar panels provide either: only photovoltaic energy (electricity) or only thermal energy (space and water heating). Power Panel is the first-to-market solar panel that provides both photovoltaic (PV) electricity and thermal energy.
