Vista Solar, California
90 Module Carport in Santa Clara
Nano SC in Desert or Dry Climate
Nanopower International cleaned, coated and cured select panels to assess the production levels of modules cleaned and treated with Nanopower SC compared to modules that have not been cleaned or cured. Individual panel monitoring data was evaluated from the Vista Solar Carport with over five months of data available after the implementation of Nanopower SC treated panels.
Nanopower's data analysis indicates that, for the designated 5-month review period from May to September of this year, the cleaning and treatment of existing solar modules using the Nanopower SC technology yielded a significant increase in energy production in comparison with the untreated solar modules for this specific location. The data indicates that the increase in efficiency and electrical output is statistically significant for panels associated with the direct panel surface cleaning and application of Nanopower technology as compared to panels that were not cleaned.
