A survey that shows how much energy used in a home, which helps find ways to use less energy.
Industry:Energy
The sum of the alternating current loads. This value is important when selecting an inverter.
Industry:Energy
Recombination occurring in the emitter region of a photovoltaic cell.
Industry:Energy
The measure of closeness in shape between a waveform and it's fundamental component.
Industry:Energy
The ratio of available energy per pound; usually used to compare storage batteries.
Industry:Energy
The trapping of light by refraction and reflection at critical angles inside a semiconductor device so that it cannot escape the device and must be eventually absorbed by the semiconductor.
Industry:Energy
The energy represented by an electron in the band model of a substance.
Industry:Energy
A photovoltaic (PV) array that follows the path of the sun to maximize the solar radiation incident on the PV surface. The two most common orientations are (1) one axis where the array tracks the sun east to west and (2) two-axis tracking where the array points directly at the sun at all times. Tracking arrays use both the direct and diffuse sunlight. Two-axis tracking arrays capture the maximum possible daily energy.
Industry:Energy
The growth of one crystal on the surface of another crystal. The growth of the deposited crystal is oriented by the lattice structure of the original crystal.
Industry:Energy
An electromagnetic device that changes the voltage of alternating current electricity.
