Aluminum in the solar industry

Since it was first commercialized nearly a century ago, aluminum has been transforming nearly every industry in which it is involved. This transformation continues today as aluminum is helping to shape renewable energy industries, such as that involved in the construction of solar panels. It's amazing to realize that after decades, aluminum is still the material of the future.

Of course, at Viet Phap Shal Aluminum, aluminum is a metal that we still use and apply in production every day, however, the technical staff of Viet Phap Shal Aluminum is always surprised by the applications. great that our customers give in every order. If you are working in the solar industry or another green energy sector, we are an ideal choice to help meet your needs for high efficiency and high performance aluminum alloy products. reliable.

Strengths of solar products processed from aluminum Viet Phap Shal

Aluminum is light in weight. And it's extremely ductile, non-magnetic, and corrosion-resistant. It is also an excellent heat conductor. However, the most important thing we need to talk about is that aluminum is also a strong conductor of electricity. Compared to copper, which many people associate with electrical conductors because of its electrical conductivity, aluminum has a conductivity equal to 59% while the density is only 30%.

Silver is another material that is extremely conductive, but it is also very expensive when compared to aluminum. Twice as much aluminum is needed in a new solar panel, but the raw material cost will be only 0.6% compared to when silver is used.

summary

In summary, aluminum plays an important role in various types of solar power systems including concentrated solar panels (CSP), photovoltaic (PV) solar power and solar heat concentrator systems. The application of aluminum and its alloys in these solar cell systems has been explained above. In addition, it is also the economic efficiency and the potential to open up new attractive markets.
