Kalahari Greentech Issues Statement About its Solar Collector

Kalahari Greentech, an energy company that develops solar and wind energy projects, has issued a statement, which talks in detail about its high-tech Solar Collector. The Solar Collector is manufactured as a single cheaper unit and deals with issues regarding collector and system efficiency.

The Solar Collector would not be cost-effective if the three functions are not performed from the same system. The device is known as the "Tri-Brid" system since it runs three functions concurrently.

A news release issued by the U.S. Department of Energy titled “Solar Energy Grew at a Record Pace in 2008” said that the U.S. and other countries in the world started using solar energy at a record pace. The Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) in its "2008 U.S. Solar Industry Year in Review" report said that the capacity of solar energy reached 8,775 MW, an increase of 17% from that of the past year. The report also said that in 2008 the U.S. established 762 thermal megawatts (MWTh) of pool heating, 139 MWTh of solar water heating, 21 MWTh of solar space heating and cooling and 342 MW of solar PV electric power.
