Hack Your Solar Panels for 30% More Power: A Forgotten Patent Reveals Clues for Major Gains in Solar Efficiency

Can you boost the efficiency of any solar panel by 30% using almost-forgotten technology from an expired German patent?This book seeks to bring the concepts involved to light, for the sake of our world's energy future. The principles are accessible to anyone with basic knowledge of electronics. They are based on conventional science that is applied in counterintuitive ways. Appendices are included with background material, sources, and examples.
Some benefits of this technology
The Fill Factor is increased.
Panels always operate at maximum power without using charge controllers.
Panels still produce power in low light conditions.
Hot spots and electro-migration are mitigated, cutting life cycle cost.
Organic, thin film, and cheap silicon cells are made as efficient as expensive monocrystalline cells.
This unusual invention can also increase the efficiency of thermoelectric generators, fuel cells, and other energy conversion technologies. Any solar installer, hobbyist, or engineer – or really, anyone interested in clean energy – will want to read this book!
