HOME / What is a photovoltaic gutter panel - CAPTURED ENERGY SOLAR (PTY) LTDThe impact of a photovoltaic (PV) panel on runoff and sediment in a slope was tested. The key impact of the PV panel is preventing soil detachment by raindrop impacts. The PV panel slope produced 27 %−63 % less soil erosion than the control slope. The PV panel delayed runoff start time under rainfall with heavy rainfall intensities.
On the contrary, under heavy rainfall with 80 mm hr -1 or 100 mm hr -1 intensity, the runoff start time of the PV panel slope was later than the control slope. The rain water quickly filled the depressions and converged into overland flow on the control slope.
It has a size of 1650 mm (length) × 950 mm (width) × 40 mm (thickness), which is commonly adopted in PV power plants. The fixed mounting PV system was chosen, and the lower edge of the PV panel was 0.5 m above the ground with the panel having a 30° angle with the ground surface.
Due to the structure of PV arrays, solar radiation and rainfall can be intercepted to a great extent by PV panels (Elamri et al., 2018, Yue et al., 2021).
The water collection system the team had designed utilizes fixed-tilt PV arrays. Under each array, a primary gutter is placed, collecting the water that runs off the panel.
