Frequently Asked Questions
What is Volumetric Solar Architecture?
- Volumetric Solar Architecture is a new mounting system for bifacial solar panels.
What is a bifacial solar panel?
A bifacial solar panel collects sunlight on both sides like a leaf and generates DC electricity
How does Volumetric Solar work?
Volumetric Solar Architecture is a 3D geometry that enables the stacking of bifacial solar panels into cubic units in parallel and series DC circuits.
How much power can Volumetric Solar generate?
Volumetric Solar can maximize the power output of bifacial solar panels using direct and reflected light.
How much energy can Volumetric Solar generate?
Volumetric Solar towers can generate more annual energy per area than flat and tilted solar panels.
How Does Volumetric Solar work in winter?
They shed snow more efficiently than flat and tilted panels with their vertical bifacial panel design.
They capture reflected light from the snow to increase power generation.
How can Volumetric Solar Towers help me reduce energy costs?
Volumetric Solar Architecture can be used to generate DC electricity daily for decades. This DC electricity can be used to reduce utility, heating and fuel costs daily.
How much do Volumetric Solar Towers cost?
Volumetric Solar is $1.25 USD per Watt DC.
The peak capacity is based on Standard Test Conditions (STC) of 1000W/m2.
Do you sell Volumetric Solar with storage?
Yes we do. Send us an email or message for a custom solar and storage quote.
Do I need a structural engineer to install Volumetric Solar?
Maybe. If the tower posts are low enough maybe not. Consult your local structural engineer and provide them with a PDF of our free structural report if you have concerns.
Do I need an electrical engineer to install Volumetric Solar?
Bifacial solar panels are DC plug-and-play with MC4 connectors.
If you are converting DC to AC you will likely need an electrician.
Do I need an electrician to install Volumetric Solar?
Bifacial solar panels are DC plug-and-play with MC4 connectors.
If you are converting DC to AC you will likely need an electrician.
Is sunlight reflection safe for people and animals?
Yes. Sunlight reflection is safe and free.
Sunglasses and sunscreen are recommended when increasin reflection.
Is sunlight reflection safe for solar panels?
Yes, bifacial solar panels are rated up to 3 suns of reflection.
Is sunlight reflection able to provide passive cooling?
Yes! Visit MEER.org for more information on recyclable mirror reflectors.
Why hasn't this been thought of before?
Volumetric Solar is wired in parallel.
All traditional solar is wired in series.
