Pure Light® Solar Panel Coating increases output and longevity

The Science – How PURE-LIGHT® TECHNOLOGY increases the efficacy and longevity of solar panels

Pure Light® can increase the efficacy of solar panels by reducing dirt, grime, streaking, spotting, fogging, and increasing the transmission of light to the panels, thereby increasing the power generation and longevity of Pure-Light® treated panels.

According to ongoing research at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), “The energy lost annually from soiling amounts to as much as 7% in parts of the United States to as high as 50% in the Middle East”. One of the researchers working at NREL is concentrating her research on urban environments and has found, “We have more fine particles that are these stickier particles that could contribute to much different surface chemistry on the module and different soiling…. What we’ve seen anecdotally by looking at aged molecules under the microscope, is after a few years they just have some sort of surface contamination that we just cannot get off, no matter how much we scrub it. In order to remove it, you actually have to scratch the glass.”

THE PURE-LIGHT TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION:

Pure-Light® Solar Panel Coating bonds to the surface of solar panels, protecting the panels and enabling a photocatalytic process caused by interaction of the coating and rays from the sun to produce molecules that decompose contaminants. In addition, the coating eliminates static electricity on the surface of the panels so dirt, grime, pollen, bird droppings, and pollution particles are not attracted to and cannot cling to the surface. Pure-Light® Solar Coating also induces a hydrophobic action causing water to lose its surface tension and sheet off the panels, carrying with it gravity deposited dirt, dust and grime. In other words, Pure-Light® treated Solar panels virtually repel dirt and are self-cleaning.

SAVE MONEY / INCREASE REVENUE:

No need for scrubbing or harsh soaps and cleaning agents which can damage the surface of panels and reduce efficacy and longevity. Save money on labor and maintenance products by treating panels with water. Fewer cleanings, reduced labor costs, long-lasting effective Pure-Light® Coating application that is bonded to the surface and more energy production means increased revenues.

COAT SOLAR PANELS AND CLEAN THE ATMOSPHERE:

And, as a bonus, because of the photocatalytic action, Pure-Light® coated solar panels are cleaning the atmosphere of harmful pollutants, enhancing the natural processes created by the sun and turning airborne VOCs and organic matter into harmless carbon dioxide and water.
