Solar Photovoltaic & Thermal Technologies
Solar energy frees electrons in semiconductors, which can then flow through an electrical circuit to power local devices or supply electricity directly to the regional utility grid.
By the end of 2015, the U.S. had 25 GW of installed PV capacity plus 1.8 GW of concentrated solar power. The U.S. ranks among global leaders in solar electricity generation, with several large utility-scale plants located in the desert Southwest (for example, the world's oldest solar thermal plant of 354 MW in California).
Solar energy can be harnessed in both electrical and thermal forms. Developing hybrid solar panel models improves overall efficiency and extends their useful operating life. Fast-co is dedicated to advancing solar technologies for smarter and more sustainable energy solutions.
