Sovello Pure Power T Series

Sovello produce highly advanced solar panels optimised for usage in either small (T-Series) or large (L-Series) solar installations. Sovello solar panels are not only very efficient, but are also created using STRING RIBBON technology which keeps the environmental impact of panel production to an absolute minimum. This makes them greener than any other panel we know of!

 

〉    100% of the energy, using only 50% of the silicon

〉    Faster energy payback than any other product of its kind

〉    Production uses at least 30% less carbon than competitors

〉    Outstanding low light performance

〉    Advanced anti-reflection coating

〉    Created in an highly efficient and fully integrated factory in Germany

〉    25 year linear performance guarantee from 99% - 85%, with    performance reduction of no-more than 0.6% annually

〉    10 year guarantee on workmanship

 

Surely all of this ecological benefit must come at a financial price though? Actually no, it doesn't. Because Sovello use less silicon and energy in the production of the panels, they are able to keep costs low and offer the panels at very competitive prices, meaning saving the planet doesn't have to cost the earth.

 

Sovello T-series Panels

 

Sovello's T-series of panels are optimised for small to medium scale installations; pitched roofs on private houses and small business are an ideal location for them. Because they operate at a high voltage, fewer panels are required in order to reach the necessary input voltage required by an inverter. This means that panels can be configured in shorter chains to accommodate awkwardly shaped roof spaces without jeopardising the performance of the system. It also allows for greater flexibility in choosing the optimal inverter for a system.

 

STRING RIBBON versus traditionally made solar panels

 

The traditional method for producing solar panels involves producing a giant ingot (or lump) of silicon. This ingot is then cut down to size and sliced into very fine layers. As silicon creation is by far the most energy intensive part of solar panel production, removing all of this excess silicon is hugely wasteful. The cutting process itself is also highly inefficient; as enormous amounts of power and specialised equipment are required to cut the hard silicon.

 

String Ribbon technology, on the other hand, allows for the creation of made-to-measure ribbons of silicon. That means: no wasted silicon, and minimal energy intensive cutting. The process is based on the principles of surface tension; two filaments (or Strings) are drawn through a crucible of molten silicon. As the filaments pull through the crucible a thin sheet of silicon forms between them, which quickly cools and forms into a hard strip  - ready to be turned into a solar cell.
