Event Recap:
RE Webinar #4: "Solar Innovations (Part 2)"

When installing solar panels, engineers would always find the best orientation and angel to install the solar panels, in order to get the longest eligible sunlight. It also means sunlight that couldn’t reach the surfaced of the solar panels are being wasted everyday. It would be good if there’s a solar panel that could rotate to chase the sunlight just like a sunflower.

There are many tall buildings in Hong Kong, it would be good if solar panels could be installed on the outer walls of these buildings and on its windows without affecting the building structure nor blocking the sunlight.

Wait, these technologies actually exist! Mr Hon Ming Wong, Technical Manager of CarbonCare InnoLab shared with us the technological development of sun tracker and building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV) in our RE Webinar on 31 March. You are welcome to watch the recording here (in Cantonese):
