Nobody can contest the fact that boosting food production globally through greenhouse farming can be a crucial strategy for feeding the world's expanding population. The management of the Food-Water-Energy balance, which is so crucial in today's world, is made possible through the usage of greenhouses. When compared to conventional farming methods, greenhouses can produce food with up to 90% less water. The fact that the electricity needed to run the greenhouses in many places is produced from fossil fuels is a drawback of this strategy. We pay a high environmental price for the expansion in food production as the area covered by glass grows and the need for electricity rises.
In order to create a new kind of solar cell, Brite Solar was established as a nanotechnology materials firm in 2010. The technology may be used in conventional glass plants without an expensive facility modification because it is based on inkjet printing manufacturing.
Any cladding used in greenhouses must be extremely transparent since a significant portion of the ambient light must get through to the plants within. Additionally, the ideal coating will not alter the light's spectrum properties. A greenhouse solar panel's cost must also be low enough to cover the cost of purchased electricity and produce a profit. To satisfy the requirements of the commercial greenhouse application, Brite Solar's Solar Glass product provides full spectrum transparency, power output, and cost optimization. Brite has also developed variations on the Solar Glass technology. The first is a Dynamic Glass, an inexpensive, thermally insulating electrochromic glass.
In Europe and the United States, Brite Solar is increasing manufacturing and constructing test greenhouses using Solar Glass.
Agrikol group is pleased to announce the partnership with Brite Solar - one of the leaders in solar technologies and competitive advantages such as: Brite’s Electrochromic Glass is substantially less expensive than all other product currently on the market.
Straightforward manufacturing method lends itself to a variety of sizes and shapes since the deposition process is patterned by the ink-jet printer's programming.
Due to Brite's low switching voltages and currents, the device can be powered either by a tiny battery inserted into the window or by electricity generated by the Brite Solar cells positioned inside the window.
The complexity and expense of integrating Brite's electrochromic glass into Insulated Glass Units are considerably reduced due to its sealed, laminated construction (IGUs).
