Traditional Solar Panels and the Problems

Traditional Solar Panel Installation

The sun does not always shine, especially in northern Europe; this is particularly true in

Britain. In the winter, on average it is only light for seven hours a day, with only three or four
hours of sunshine. This places severe limitations on the operation of traditional solar panels,
including the latest evacuated tube type collectors.

Conventional solar heating systems circulate water through glass panels to collect heat from the sun. These systems are inefficient at low temperatures and do not work at all during hours of darkness.

Thermodynamic Panels

Thermodynamic Panels uses the highly energy efficient thermal solar technology based on the 

principle of the French physicist Nicholas Carnot, who discovered thermodynamics in 1840.

Thanks to this principle, the thermodynamic solar panels are capable of extracting heat from 

the atmosphere during periods of sunshine, in rain, wind and even during the night. No other 

type of solar panel is capable of generating hot water 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year.


The Thermodynamic Atmospheric Energy system is different. It is capable of taking energy from the atmosphere at temperatures as low as -15OC and it also works at night. Thermodynamic does this by utilising a refrigerant gas and reverse refrigeration technology.

Thermodynamic is capable of extracting sufficient warmth to heat a building to a comfortable temperature even on the coldest winter days. Thermodynamic has a much higher efficiency level than even the very best oil and gas builders which are typically 95% efficient. The result is clean, sustainable and low cost energy.
