Case Study
Case Study: Optimizing Solar Power Generation in Bikaner, Rajasthan.
Overview:
TriNano Technologies conducted a pilot study at a solar power plant in Bikaner, Rajasthan, to assess the efficacy of TriNano Coating in enhancing solar panel performance and efficiency.
The study aimed to address the challenges of maximizing energy generation and reducing maintenance requirements in arid climates.
Challenge:
The solar power plant faced challenges related to suboptimal energy generation, frequent maintenance needs, and high operational costs due to the harsh climatic conditions of Bikaner, Rajasthan.
Additionally, the need for sustainable solutions to improve solar panel efficiency and performance was paramount.
Solution:
TriNano Coating was applied to one string of solar panels as part of the pilot study, while another adjacent string remained non-coated for comparison. The innovative coating solution offered self-cleaning properties, temperature regulation benefits, and enhanced efficiency, addressing the challenges faced by the solar power plant.
Results:
The pilot study yielded promising results, demonstrating the immediate impact of TriNano Coating on solar panel performance:
● Efficiency Increase: Coated panels exhibited an 6-8% increase in efficiency from day one post-pilot, significantly enhancing energy generation.
● Performance Ratio Improvement: Within a few days, the performance ratio of coated panels measured at 14%, surpassing non-coated panels.
● Reduced Maintenance: Cleaning cycles reduced from thrice a week to once a week, reducing operational costs and conserving water resources.
● Lower Temperature: Coated panels demonstrated lower underlying solar cell temperature, enhancing life of the panel in extreme climates.
Overall, the results validated the transformative potential of TriNano Coating in optimizing solar power generation, mitigating maintenance requirements, and promoting sustainability in solar energy production, particularly in arid regions like Bikaner, Rajasthan.
