Spin Cell Spinning Solar Cells

For too long the world believed solar was flat v3solar writes.

Spin cell spinning solar cells.

A solar start up company claims that its technology could generate electricity that s even cheaper than the coal fired variety. That s a greater solar power generation in a small space. The photovoltaic material in these solar cones are organizedin an angulate array hence the cone like shape. Spin cells can also be used in another form called power pole which is aimed to save space compared to conventional flat panels.

The cone shape and spinning capabilities allow level best exposure to sunbeams from any perspective. As the name suggests it is a pole which holds 10 spin cells or 10kwp in a footprint of 10 sf. V3solar s spin cell solar panel is a spinning conical device. To better understand the spin cell technology the following is a portion of a v3 spin cell review provided by bill rever independent consultant december 18 2012.

V3solar has invented and is now in the process of commercializing the first major change to flat panel pv technology in over 50 years the v3 spin cell. Get it as soon as fri sep 25. Using specialized lensing and a rotating conical shape the spin cell can concentrate the sunlight 30x onto one. When one thinks of solar power they usually conjure an image of flat panels installed on the siding of a house but in the future a spinning solar cell like the one created by v3solar may be what comes to mind.

The v3 solar system is fundamentally a rotating assembly of photovoltaic cells under a structure of lenses that concentrate light onto the moving cells. The intelligent and rather elegant spin cell cones aim to utilize as much of the sun s power as possible. While an array of v3 s spin cell s can occupy a very small space relative to conventional flat panels v3 has also conceived of a power pole to support even greater even solar. 3 7 out of 5 stars 39.
