Sunpreme Double Glass PV panels demo extreme ruggedness in University of Wisconsin's Antarctica environment simulation tests.
Sunpreme Inc., a US-based solar photovoltaic company that designs and manufactures its own cells, panels and systems, announced that its advanced double glass PV panels have successfully passed severe test conditions of extreme low temperatures and mechanical robustness. The tests, conducted by the University of Wisconsin at their Physical Sciences Laboratory, are a stepping-stone to possible deployment of Sunpreme panels in Antarctica.The panels are under consideration to be used at the IceCube Neutrino Observatory located at the South Pole to help reduce the logistical cost of running the detector.
