For solar panels, the manufacturers state in their specification sheet the efficiency, under standard test conditions or theoretical efficiency, is 20 to 22%. This means that sun rays should be 90 degrees and panel temp has to be 25 deg Celsius. That doesn’t happen all the time. So under normal conditions, efficiency is limited 15 to 18%.

To maintain optimum output, regular maintenance & cleaning is required to remove Oil, Grime, dust bird droppings which is a recurring cost.

Third issue is the degradation of panels and its life which means that after 12 to 15 years, panels must be replaced and it is big investment cost.

We have developed solid state NANO coating made of inorganic/ceramic/oxide material and applied by electro deposition process with 3 main properties : Light trapping, Self-cleaning, Anti reflection.

Our coating is applied on top glass surface of panels thereby increasing surface area and creating micro-structure similar to amazon raintree forest. Our 0.4 micron coating, thinner than human hair, traps light and directs it to underlying silica cells, generating more power and energy.  Due to unique microstructure, particles like dust, oil, grime, and bird droppings don’t stick to coated surface and can be easily cleaned with high-pressure air, soft brush, or rain.

We reflect the light in IR range wavelength, thereby reducing the cell temperature and thus reducing panel degradation.

Our Nano Coating optimizes any solar panel’s performance (irrespective of its brand, make, type, age or location), increasing energy output by 4%, extending panel life by 2-3 years, and reducing cleaning needs by 55%.

A brief write up on TriNANO has been put on MNRE (Ministry of New and Renewable Energy, Government of India’s) webpage:

Our Nano coatings make climate and social impact by reducing water consumption for cleaning of solar panels by 55%, decreasing the carbon emissions by 5.2%, increase the land availability by 7.6%, as our coating increases performance ratio and productivity of both new and existing solar panels.

We have done multiple projects for our nano coating on New Solar Panels as well as Retrofits (existing solar plants or IPP) –

• BluPine Energy (Bikaner, Rajasthan) (Having about 5 year old, Goldi Solar panels)
• Adani Green (Kanesar, Rajasthan) (Having about 6 year old, Adani Solar Panels)
• Tata Power (Neemuch, Madhyapradesh) (Having about 10 Year old, Rene Sola – Chinese maker)
• Toyota Roof top Solar (Manesar Haryana) (New Panels – 330Wp from Renewsys)
• Residential Roof top Project (Turbhe, Maharashtra) (New Panels – 60Wp from Pahal Solar)
• Ayaana Power (Pavagarh, Karnataka) (Having about 5 year old panels from QCell China and Risen Solar China)

At Walwahan Power Plant (A Tata Power subsidiary), they had 11 years old, Chinese make Rene Solar Panels and were cleaning twice a week.

After our coating, they have reported 3.8% increase in Power generation and 56% reduction in cleaning frequency. Earlier we had also done a project in Bikaner, Rajasthan where they were using 5+ year old panels (Indian Make).

After our coating, they have reported 6% increase in Power output and cleaning reduced to once a month. We look forward to working together to make world clean, green and a better place to live.
