San Francisco CA (SPX) Jul 10, 2009 At Intersolar North America, Vela Solaris AG has announced the upgrading of their Polysun family of products in the United States to include the latest data from the Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC) for all US solar system components. "We consistently strive to improve upon our industry-leading Polysun software, and we are thrilled to have added SRCC data to our Polysun line of products as yet another key benefit of our product over competing offerings in the United States," said Simon Geisshuesler, chief marketing officer of Vela Solaris. "The most accurate and cost effective energy efficiency reading possible is of utmost importance to our customers, and the addition of SRCC data only strengthens the Polysun software's ability to provide the most accurate and efficient solution available." SRCC is the only independent third-party certification entity for the US solar industry. SRCC currently administers a certification, rating and labeling program for solar collectors and a similar program for complete solar water heating systems. The SRCC label is required by many state and local governments to meet their rebate program requirements, and is seen in the industry as a key endorsement of a solar product. "Additionally, we are thrilled to announce that Heliodyne, a pioneer in the solar hot water industry, is now utilizing Polysun software for demonstrations and training," continued Geisshuesler. "Working with Polysun facilitates and speeds up our planning process tremendously," says Ole Pilgaard, CEO and President of Heliodyne Corp. "Polysun greatly simplifies the system design process and also serves as a sizing instrument. In addition, Polysun generates professional PDF reports that are a great help in sales and marketing." The Polysun family is the world's most flexible and accurate software for the simulation and design of renewable energy systems optimized for any particular site and structure. While other software programs are based on fixed inflexible templates, Polysun takes input for variables in building design, energy system components, and climactic variables to create a highly accurate energy analysis and system design that can be tailored to any site and structure. The Polysun family includes three product lines: Polysun PV targeting photovoltaics (PV), Polysun ST targeting solar thermal and Polysun HP targeting geothermal ground loop and heat pump systems. Polysun enables system designers, installers, planners, manufacturers, and other users to design an optimized system for their site, calculate energy and carbon savings, and generate accurate ROI reports for cost analysis. Polysun also produces reports with the data needed to obtain state and federal energy tax rebates. Each family of Polysun products can be purchased in three different configurations with feature sets tailored to the needs of different types of users: Polysun Light, Polysun Professional and Polysun Designer. All Polysun products make the design of solar thermal, PV and geothermal systems simple and professional. The software takes into account data from building geometry and orientation, domestic hot water consumer profiles and a variety of other loads - with a complete year dynamic simulation - providing reliable yield forecasts that generate a much more precise read of what the energy efficiency will be and an accurate return on investment. Additionally, they offer the most comprehensive climatological database, with more than 8,000 weather station data points, making the Polysun system more accurate than any other program available.

![]() ![]() Leiden, Netherlands (SPX) Jul 07, 2009 An international team of researchers has modified chlorophyll from an alga so that it resembles the extremely efficient light antennae of bacteria. The team was then able to determine the structure of these light antennae. This is the first step to converting sunlight into energy using an artificial leaf. The researchers will be publishing an article on their research findings in the ... read more |
