Title: Nanostructured Anti-reflective Coating for Solar Panels
Project Leader: Dr. Tanujjal Bora
Objectives:
Solar energy is one of the most powerful renewable energy sources available to mankind. To harvest the solar energy, solar panels are used, where anti-reflective coatings are an essential device component to minimize the optical losses. However, most of the anti-reflective coatings are complex to design, costly, and degrades with time leading to reduction in the performance of the panels and increased maintenance costs. This project aims to develop an innovative nanostructured anti-reflective coating for commercial solar panels to improve their performance by reducing optical losses, and to ensure an affordable and clean energy production by reducing the maintenance costs and energy pollution respectively. The goal is to identify an eco-friendly technological solution for the deposition of green and robust anti-reflective coatings on solar panels and demonstrate an economically viable proof-of-concept for future sustainable business development in the solar energy sector.
