Researchers in Morocco have actually made a brand-new bifacial module with a cooling system, based upon bifacial parabolic solar cells that are attached to each various other through tubes for panel cooling. They are currently patenting the tech, however have yet to produce a first prototype.

The tool is based upon a state-feedback flexible control system in a real-time controller. According to its designers, it can attain great vibrant reaction and also flaunts far better transmission capacity than present business options.
