In my research i have found that one solar technology previously largely ignored because of low cost photovoltaics or pv panels could make a comeback.
Reflection mirror solar panel.
A solar mirror contains a substrate with a reflective layer for reflecting the solar energy and in most cases an interference layer this may be a planar mirror or parabolic arrays of solar mirrors used to achieve a substantially concentrated reflection factor for solar energy systems.

Plus the panel glass is often stippled or textured with tiny indentations to lessen the amount of sunlight that is reflected.
The solar cell panel 1 is a 10 watt panel as the panel model 2 is the optimization of solar cells by 530 s.
The humble mirror or booster.

Some solar panels are also designed with additional light trapping properties that help boost energy production while reducing glare.
A study showed that reflectors on solar panels can increase their performance by up to 30.
Solar modules are coated with anti reflective materials that maximize light absorption.
Increasing the yield through reflection could make that an even m.
Below is an example of how sunarc s antireflective technology just one available on the market can increase light transmission in glass and reduce reflection.
The sunrays emanating from sun s outer surface due to nuclear fusion take about 8 minutes to reach earth s atmospheric region they consist of ultraviolet visible and infrared radiations ranging from 100nm to 100000 nm.
Power point for each.
See article heliostat for more information on solar mirrors used for terrestrial energy.
The continuing drop in cost for home solar power generation has led to a dramatic increase in the rate of installations for both residential and commercial use.
These days to increase solar panel efficiency and power output most panels are treated with some kind of anti reflective coating.
It deploys 173 500 heliostats each with two mirrors focusing solar energy on boilers located on three 459 ft 139 9 m tall solar power.
