Increased Output by Module Cooling

Performance increase by cooling the cells using the capillary tube technology

Further, additional performance increase may be achieved by cooling the cell temperature down below the STC-temperature (e.g. 10°C (50°F)):

A 200-Watt module at STC, for example, provides 7.5% more output (215 Watt) at a cell temperature of 10°C (50°F) (AM 1.5; 1000W/m²). So with operation at 10°C (50°F) instead of a cell temperature of 90°C (194°F) this means an increase of 75 Watt or 59.26%!
