| PowerLight completes first phase of Korean project PowerLight Corporation has completed the first phase, 800 kW, of a 1 Megawatt solar power project in Gwangju, Korea. The solar photovoltaic array, the largest elevated solar parking system in the world, was designed, developed and deployed by PowerLight Corporation; it uses PowerTracker, the single-axis solar tracking system. Mounted over a parking facility at the Kimdaejung Convention Center, the PowerTracker solar power system automatically follows the path of the sun throughout the day to maximize the solar panels' energy output, providing substantially more power than a fixed tilt system. The photovoltaic cells being used in the system were manufactured by Schott Solar. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Construction News :: home page |
