Location of solar and wind farms, do we know where they are?
From the University of Southampton a group of researchers has drawn up a map with the most important locations of wind and solar farms around the world. These maps have been made in order to assess the potential environmental impact they have.Thanks to this study published in the journal Nature Scientific, Solar Energy in Pakistan the density of these infrastructures in the different regions and the energy production they carry out can be seen on the maps. In the following image you can see the world distribution of solar energy (a) and the world distribution of wind energy (b)
World map solar and wind installations
With these maps it has been shown that renewable energy in global electricity generation accounted for approximately 26% in 2018 and, in addition, it is also clearly seen that solar energy and wind energy are the main protagonists in the rapid increase in energy renewable. Even so, there is not yet enough accessible data to clarify the geographic extent of wind and solar farms.In order to develop the map, the researchers resorted to data from OpenStreetMap, a project that allows for collaborative mapping from data freely provided by users, to collect data from labels marked with 'wind' and 'solar' and cross them with official data from the regions.
After completing this cross-over of data, they clarified that renewable energies predominate in Europe, North America and East Asia, so it is not far from the official statistics on the renewable capacity of the countries. With this, the idea is that the map can be updated as research progresses and is a document accessible to researchers.
From Autosolar we encourage you to use renewable energies in your home or country house to benefit both the world by contributing to the environment and yourself by saving on the electricity bill. The solar kits that we offer at Autosolar are made up of all the necessary materials ( solar panels , batteries , etc.) to carry out a complete installation. Remember that you can contact our professionals to request your budget without any commitment, we will gladly assist you and prepare the proposal that best suits your needs.
Cooling in solar panels to increase production
The installation of solar kits is increasingly on the rise, so that the sun's rays are used to generate electricity and reduce the electricity bill . Companies are also opting for the installation of solar panels on the roofs of their warehouses or in the buildings where they have offices, as the technology with which they are manufactured advances and they are becoming more efficient.Researchers at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University have discovered a substance that allows solar panels to 'sweat' to control the temperature of the heat, allowing them to cool down and thus increase electricity generation by almost 20% .The substance is gel-shaped and absorbs water from the atmosphere, thereby cooling the solar panels. Best Solar Panel Company in Pakistan This gel is made up of different carbon nanotubes in polymers with a calcium chloride salt that attracts water. The operation is based on absorbing water vapor at night, which is when the air is coldest and the humidity is highest. At the moment in which the temperature rises during the sunny hours, the gel, which has obtained the humidity of the night, releases the water vapor.
The researchers argued that this method reduced the temperature of the solar panel by up to 10ºC and that electricity production was increased between 15% and 19%. They also highlighted that the amount of gel necessary to achieve the effect would depend largely on the humidity of the environment. For example, in a desert, where the humidity is 35%, a solar panel of one square meter would require 1kg of gel to cool it; however, in areas where humidity is higher than 80%, only 0.3kg of gel would be required.
The main drawback of this innovation is that the rain could dissolve the calcium chloride salt in the gel. Although the researchers recognize this disadvantage, Solar Panel in Pakistan they point out that the hydrogel is located under the solar panel so it would be protected from the rain. Still they are working on a second generation that would not dissolve even when wet.
