TVP's World-Best Solar Thermal Panel Certified and Proven

GENEVA, April 10, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

        
        - Int'l Certification: best efficiency verified under Solar Keymark up to 200degree
          (s)C
        - Commercial Validation: massive yearly thermal energy supply cuts client operating
          costs
        - The Future Of Energy: solar thermal proven to beat traditional fuel prices

TVP Solar announces the one-year study of its solar thermal panels at a live client site in Kuwait. The results prove TVP's best-in-class performance operating up to 200degree(s)C as recently certified by Din Certco Solar Keymark. The solar field in Kuwait produces a massive amount of thermal energy - 750 kWh/msquared/year - with a peak efficiency of 57%, validating certification values.

"TVP has proven itself a game-changer," exclaimed Mr. Piero Abbate, TVP's CEO. "Our super-performing panels predictably deliver massive thermal energy for the most energy-consuming applications, even in harsh environments like the Gulf." The panels can be applied to industrial process heat, desalination, and air conditioning.

The solar field delivered up to 180degree(s)C to directly drive a double-effect absorption chiller and supply air conditioning to the new Agility Headquarters in Sulaibiya, Kuwait. Over 365 days the system ran automatically and unattended with 98% reliability, showing a mere 8% of efficiency loss due to soiling effect; this was achieved without a single day of panel cleaning!

The TVP solar-driven cooling system contributes 73% of the points for the new building's LEED certification. Operating from 10am to 3pm (on average per day), with ambient temperatures up to 62degree(s)C, solar thermal supplied 70% of the daily cooling load, matching the peak load.

Alternative Energy Solutions (AES) CEO Mr. Stephen Lubrano stated: "We are extremely proud to be the first adopter of this revolutionary solution in Kuwait. The solution is perfectly in-line with our parent company's vision of innovation and social responsibility." He went on to add that, "TVP economically and efficiently cuts OPEX, meets Agility's sustainability objectives, and is a key component of the new headquarters' LEED certification."
