Renewable Energy Solar Glass Roofing Tile

In 2010, the most impressive innovation in roof tile development probably is solTech, which will convert solar energy to 'passive' heat.

Its working theory is simple. Air below the glass tile is heated by the sun and redirected for use by the central heating system. The system works with air-based and water-based heating systems, including, for example, a ground source heat pump, air heat pump, pellet boiler, oil boiler, or electric boiler.

The SolTech solar energy system, solTech System, is the flexible solar heating system that works for all types of buildings such as offices, hotels, appartment buildings and industrial buildings.

The system is designed to be integrated with the existing house's energy solution, whether it is a ground source heat pump, air heat pump, pellet boiler, oil boiler or electric boiler.

solTech roof system is especially helpful in snowy climates since snow easily slides down the glassy tiles.

It's an idea to improve people's living conditions. The roof tile engineers make it come true. Maybe the roof tile manufacturer should put more attention to local market's needs instead of sitting back, waiting and copying.

GT Solar Receives $47.3 Million Order SDR400 CVD Reactors

GT Solar International, Inc . (NASDAQ: SOLR), a global provider of polysilicon production technology, and sapphire and silicon crystalline growth systems and materials for the solar, LED and other specialty markets, today announced that it has received a $47.3 million order from South Korea-based polysilicon producer OCI Company, Ltd. for its newest SDR™400 CVD reactors. This is OCI’s third order for GT Solar’s SDR400 CVD reactors. The new systems will be installed as the first phase of OCI’s new polysilicon capacity expansion plan, which OCI announced on December 8, 2010. The order will be included in GT Solar’s backlog for its current Q3 FY11, which ends on January 1, 2011. GT Solar SDRTM CVD Reactor Series are high volume production chambers that utilize the proven Siemens-type process technology to manufacture high quality semiconductor grade or solar grade polysilicon.

Solar Car Project?

Even though I put all of my attention on solar roof project around the world, a solar car project leaded by Stanford students distract me. Apparently, they are doing it good. A 1985 Matsuura CNC 3-axis mill, that's the raw material they are working on. Look at the picture on their blog , the mill was fully equiped with solar panels. I don't know the conversion rate of silicon cells they are using, but I think I can provide them some if they need. However, what they want to prove is simple that a solar power car can be made and drive. Great job, Stanford students!

AnRoof Solar Power Photovoltaic Slate Tile Grid System

Solar power slate tile are made of monocrystalline silicon solar cells which are embedded in slate roof tile. By installation of overlapping, AnRoof solar slate tiles promise zero potential harm and zero dislodge risk. It's suggested to install on unshaded and sloping roof area. Excellent conversion rate make full use of house roof to provide seamless electricity in decades. It can be integrated to either on-grid or off-grid systems. The off-grid system is a stand-alone solar roofing system, ideal for home and business building that can't connect to country grid, the stable converted solar power can meet the needs of daily house electricity request. On-grid module enable house owners to sell extra solar power to grid companies besides daily electricity usage. The application area include residential, commercial and industrial buildings.
