Circular Solar
A multi-purpose approach to renewable design for efficiency.
While upcycling wastes into recycled solutions powered by our cleanest source of energy - the Sun!
Carbon, pm removal nanotechnology ensures high albedo value fresh snow for up to 95% solar reflectance.
Recycling integration options
How do bifacial solar panels work?
Optimizing Ground Albedo, Diffuse Reflection
Integrating the innovation, recycled materials with high albedo value with ground mounted solar to boost efficiency for pv farms, mine site power, electrified fleets, equipment and battery storage. Reshaping land use in this fashion helps cool off versus heating our planet.
The Highest Albedo Value, Snow, Clouds
This is a mine site road and processing plant in Idaho during January, covered in snow. Yes, if designed and engineered correctly, solar works even in the snow, as that is a high albedo value for solar efficiency. Oversize renewable projects to restore and power cleaner, responsible mining and also adjacent communities or highway clean energy needs.
Mine sites and AI Data-Centers clean power with backup natural gas or diesel generators and require environmental, community benefits during all stages and especially during reclamation. Early stages could really use a revenue stream before production. Together, this may expedite permitting and reshoring of the North American Energy Transition and Critical minerals, metals for defense and more.
Recycling Integration; Resources In Landfills That Can Simulate Fresh Snow Albedo
Circular Economy Energy; from wind blades, glass, concrete where we can divert before landfill or recycled stream into higher PV-BESS, EV charging efficiency. At mine sites, this includes repurposing waste rock as ERW with Hybrid DAC.
Field Tests, Demonstration: Repurposing, Recycling Landfilled Wastes Into High Efficiency Clean Energy, Infrastructure
Simulating white, light, clouds and snow, wind, vessel, aerospace composite, future recycled wind concrete and bottle, jar glass offer a high albedo effect. On the ground or the as the mounting hardware and storage for BESS to EV charging infrastructure.
Cooling, EV Charging Infrastructure Concept Tests
This end use application offers scale of Circular Solar EV Charging Station infrastructure.
We see efficiency increase and a solution to help manage UHI (urban heat island effect) during heatwaves especially during during peak power demand/rates.
These innovations are then brought back onto the tiny microgrid, testbed, to double check albedo, temperature and energy efficiency changes monitored by more sophisticated equipment.

August 2022 heatwave energy change
Aug 2022, Nearby Port of Oakland: Brown albedo vs repurposed white wind blade fiberglass, glass bottle, white concrete up to a 5% energy yield/bifacial side gain increasing pv-bess-ev charging efficiency. Vertical and tracking gain >20% additional solar yield, batteries stored in Wind composite offer benefits managing UHI, watertight infrastructure.
25% more output Plus Marine CDR (carbon Dioxide Removal)
On Summer Solstice we have a 25% output increase and the peak differential was 50%.
Meanwhile, the carbon removal nanotechnology is removing, breaking down Port, Rail, Freeway/Vehicle, Vessel pollutants, particulate matter build-up into cleaner stormater runoff. Potentially removing forever chemicals and fatal to fish toxin 6PPD-Q from tire wear, and calcium byproduct provides ocean alkalinity enhancement.

One application of Product Circular Solar
In this Circular Solar application we see it ensures the coolest concrete surface possible contributing urban heat island effect.
1. Strategically add canopy or vertical solar and capture some of that reflected sunlight into generating additional pv energy, revenue.
2. Ensuring a cooler EV charging station parking spaces. To support charging and life cycle of the battery pack, electric motor, power inverter, charger, transmission and thermal system.
