2. Rooftop solar power - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooftop_solar_power

   A rooftop solar power system, or rooftop PV system, is a photovoltaic (PV) system that has its electricity -generating solar panels mounted on the rooftop of a residential or commercial building or structure. [1] The various components of such a system include photovoltaic modules, mounting systems, cables, solar inverters battery storage ...

3. Solar shingle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_shingle

   Solar shingles became commercially available in 2005. [4] In a 2009 interview with Reuters, a spokesperson for the Dow Chemical Company estimated that their entry into the solar shingle market would generate $5 billion in revenue by 2015 and $10 billion by 2020.

4. Reflective surfaces (climate engineering) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflective_surfaces...

   Reflective surfaces, or ground-based albedo modification (GBAM), is a solar radiation management method of enhancing Earth's albedo (the ability to reflect the visible, infrared, and ultraviolet wavelengths of the Sun, reducing heat transfer to the surface). The IPCC described this method as "whitening roofs, changes in land use management (e.g ...

5. Building-integrated photovoltaics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building-integrated...

   Solar roof tiles are roof tiles with integrated solar modules. The ceramic solar roof tile is developed and patented by a Dutch company [12] in 2013. Modules shaped like multiple roof tiles. Solar shingles are modules designed to look and act like regular shingles, while incorporating a flexible thin film cell.

6. Sol-air temperature - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sol-air_temperature

   Sol-air temperature. Sol-air temperature (Tsol-air) is a variable used to calculate cooling load of a building and determine the total heat gain through exterior surfaces. It is an improvement over: Where: The above equation only takes into account the temperature differences and ignores two important parameters, being 1) solar radiative flux ...

7. Maximum power point tracking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maximum_power_point_tracking

   Maximum power point tracking (MPPT), [1][2] or sometimes just power point tracking (PPT), [3][4] is a technique used with variable power sources to maximize energy extraction as conditions vary [5]. The technique is most commonly used with photovoltaic (PV) solar systems but can also be used with wind turbines, optical power transmission and ...
