Liquid cooling of photovoltaic panels is a very efficient method and achieves satisfactory results. Regardless of the cooling system size or the water temperature, this method of cooling always improves the electrical efficiency of PV modules. The operating principle of this cooling type is based on water use.
Decades ago, researchers showed that cooling solar panels with water can provide that benefit. Today, some companies even sell water-cooled systems. But those setups require abundant available water and storage tanks, pipes, and pumps. That's of little use in arid regions and in developing countries with little infrastructure.
The recycled water is collected in a U-shaped borehole heat exchanger (UBHE), installed in an existing well to enhance the cooling capacity. The water exchanges heat with shallow-geothermal energy. Finally, the panel is again sprayed with water to cool it. The water in this cooling system first cooled the PV panel.
Therefore, our design does utilize a method for storing energy for cooling as needed. The combined air conditioning and thermal storage system is intended as a technology to increase the effectiveness of solar photovoltaic energy use.
For a lower cost of solar panels or a higher cost of thermal storage, the system design would instead include a solar array. The energy saved would be much higher in this case, and a smaller size thermal storage tank could be used. If the optimized parameter is energy saved instead of cost, the solar array would be in the chosen system.
This is the simplest way of cooling PV modules, so it is very popular. This method increases the energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness of the system with a limited investment. Passive cooling with air is the cheapest and simplest method of removing excess heat from PV panels. In such a solution, the PV modules are cooled by natural airflow.
