And you're multiplying the points of failure and complexity of the system. That's the beauty of solar panel imho, not much an go wrong, adding water, potentially boiling water that is, pipes, pumps, &c. sounds like an headache
- danans 2y agoI agree that today it doesn't make cost sense, especially in a retrofit scenario and when the marginal cost of additional solar panels is so low. However, heat removal methods could make sense for much more efficient, but much more temperature-sensitive solar PV materials like perovskites.
