Now that really is thinking outside of the box! Using the geometry and optical properties of a giant see-through ball, this solution acts like a giant magnifying glass to make power. According to their claim, it can reach efficiency level of 57% when compared to conventional PV systems.
The Spherical Solar Power Generator works by using a large transparent sphere to focus diffused sunlight onto a small surface area of mini-solar panels. Because the solar panels used on the device are so small, its relative efficiency is increased. It is, in effect, an innovative form of other concentrated photovoltaic technologies (CPVs).
Crystal balls have been telling fortunes in fairgrounds for many years, but this Spherical Sun Power Generator could be the future of solar energy. A German Architect has designed an innovative form of a solar power generator. Unlike being flat or thin like other PV panels, this one is a giant transparent sphere! [see-also]
It does this to maximize the conversion efficiency of the sun's rays. By having this tracking system constantly moving the collector to maximize efficiency, the spherical sun power generator can double the yield of a conventional solar panel in a much smaller surface area.
comparison of the different existing solar energy providers render of the solar generator in context for building application the spherical glass solar energy generator uses the advantageous strategy of implementing a ball lens and specific geometrical structure to improve energy efficiency by 35%.
The glass sphere is used to concentrate diffused sunlight into a small surface of tiny solar panels. The ball lens is able to concentrate and diffuse light on one small focal point, which means less material used to create solar cells and also more efficiency.
CWX Electronic Ball Valve | US Solar Pumps
The CWX is an electronic ball valve. Some use the CWX for thermal syphoning or thermosiphon. When the pump is off, the water cools and the hot water rises. As this happens the cold water lowers back into the system. Many people use this valve for their drain back system. Most solar powered hot water systems are an enclosed system. In some areas ...

Tiny Spheres, Big Energy: PV ''Balls'' Challenge Solar Panel Tech
Current PV panels typically convert only 15-20% of incident sunlight into electrical energy, with the remainder lost as heat or reflection. This contrasts with a 45% efficiency in energy generation from burning natural gas. Improving PV efficiency involves enhancing material properties, optimizing cell design, and reducing internal losses.
