Abstract

This research work discusses the application of concept of the light reflection methodology to generate cost-effective extreme power generation under optimum photo voltaic (PV) panel space constraints. Multiple light reflector materials are arranged so that multiple input solar light intensities are initiated on the solar PV panel along with direct solar light intensity. Because of the multiple input light intensity reflections on the PV panel, substantial load current generation ensues, which was a key drawback of commercial PV panels. Also, this key action of multiple light input reflections on the PV panels enables the replacement of the application of large size of PV panels for adequate load current generation. This in turn offers enhanced panel efficiency in optimal space constraints results in the socio-economic benefit operation. Mirrors and aluminum foil are utilized as light reflecting materials due to their effective reflective coefficients. Therefore, multiple experimental investigations are carried out on minimum size of PV panels to verify the effective light reflection methodology and presented in this work. From the experimental investigations, a panel efficiency of 143.44% was noticed in optimal space constraints, which was the astonishing performance obtained using the concept of light reflection methodology
