Solar Systems
A recent Tufts University study illustrates clearly the benefits of the Hybrid Integrated solar thermal system
Without a means to illuminate naturally occurring waste heat generated from the production of electric energy below the Solar tile, temperatures exceed 110°F at High Noon and at peak solar production. Using solar thermal to extract some of this excess heat, the temperatures below the tiles are significantly reduced on the average of 37°F and is piped into building heating and water systems.
Advantages
- The system will reduce energy costs at 20-30percent (%)
- Solar Cells built into roofing material
- Third Generations Solar Technology – Lowers Costs - Increases efficiencies
- Hot water heaters
- Radiant floor heating systems
- Industrial process water systems
- Warm air heating systems
- Remote site applications
According to the USEPA estimate (2003, 1.4lbs of CO2 is released in the production of 1 kWh of electricity. A fully integrated IPX solar solution can save nearly 2,000Kwh per month on 4000 sq foot or less structures.
