The company was able to develop a white solar panel by using a plastic layer that acts as a special filter that scatters light from the entire visible spectrum while absorbing just infrared light. This is the wavelength most silicon solar panels use to transform into electricity.
Innovative technologies are now defying traditional expectations by offering solar panels in white. There is a special revolutionary technology – a nanotechnology-based film – that allows to achieve white and coloured solar panels without visible cells or connections.
Its reflective surface allows the white solar panel to operate at temperatures 20-30° lower than normal PV modules. According to CSEM, their white and coloured solar filters can be applied to existing systems or integrated into new customised panels during assembly, on flat or curved surfaces.
Researchers have focused on building white solar panels for many reasons. The first is because the color itself is versatile, allowing architects to incorporate them into buildings easily. The second is because white reflects the heat from sunlight, keeping buildings cooler and reducing their energy demands.
