Solar Energy ArticlesEvergreen Electricity By Installation of Solar Panels Solar panel is an important invention in the history of a mankind since it has reduced pressure on the much cherished resources of the environment and earth. In this article, we are going to have a look at some of the important aspects of solar panels and how they help in evergreen concept of electricity generation. Prior to the solar panels, the electricity that was produced worldwide was from the raw materials that or a limited nature. These raw materials on the other hand, cannot be renewed. So in a sense we can say that once electricity is produced, we lose a further chance of production from the very same resources. Hence there was a much need for a greener form of electricity. There is a company in Massachusetts, USA that is entirely dedicated in research and development of the solar panels and the ways to make them more efficient and greener source of electricity generation. The name of the company is Evergreen Solar (http://evergreensolar.com/en/). We are going to have a look at the case study of this particular company. It will showcase latest technology in the market for greener solar power. Evergreen Solar has an industry leading positive power tolerance. This is possible due to the usage of the new technology-based ES-E panels that can provide the feature like more consistent, higher voltage without the loss of electric current. This will provide more power to the appliances connected d to their solar panels. All this is possible due to the mission statement of the company that serves as a guideline to the company's operations. Their mission states that they shall in all cases continue to strive in order to make the production of electricity in a manner that shall cause the minimal or no significant impact on the environment. To make their mission statements transform into their business goal and production output, they have guided their operations team to save on silicon and also the emissions containing carbon. Carbon emissions make environment filled with poisonous gases. They have their brand of solar panels made up of silicon with the String Ribbon technology. This saves up on the CO2 to a great extent, making them emit 30% lesser CO2 than any other silicon panel available in the market. There have been counter-tests by leading organizations like Photon International to test the capability of these devices. Results have proven to be in favor of Evergreen Solar panels. Claims made suggest that their carbon footprint per unit of products is lesser than any other company in the world that offers products that require processing of crystalline silicon. Not only they care about the core technology, but they also divert their attention of research into the finishing touches of the solar panels. This has made them conclude by practical experience that the anti-reflective glasses when used as covering sheaths of solar panels can produce 2-3% better output than standard glass coverings. The solar panels are also ready to take on the harsh environmental challenges imposed. These products offer a higher tolerance to the temperature of the environment. This has proved to be 4% better than ones available in the current market. The temperature rating for the same is over 90%. To make it even better, the silicon that is used in the manufacturing of the String Ribbon Technology of the solar panels of Evergreen Solar fractionally come from emissions and waste that is generated from making conventional solar panels. Packaging of the solar panels is also done in 100% free of cardboard and recycled materials. This reduces the cost for environment for disposing of f all the wastes. It also provides freedom from tons of landfill. Thus we have seen the very unique form of business model that is adapted by this company Evergreen Solar that has dedicated itself to make use of the recycled materials and also reduce carbon footprint for the betterment of the environment.
