CCO Katherine Ryzhaya Talks Bifacial Panels on Energy CIO Insights
Our Chief Commercial Officer Katherine Ryzhaya has recently published an editorial on Energy CIO Insights, an online publication that cumulates the latest technology, opinions, analyses and discussion of the most predominant issues in the field of energy. Katherine wrote about the latest emerging technology in the solar industry – bifacial solar modules that can convert daylight to electricity from both sides. Current research undertaken by our R&D team suggest that this new technology could increase rates of generation by at least 8%, and other investigations suggest increases could be as much as 15%.
Read what Katherine had to say about the potential impacts of these developments in the full article, available online here.
