A process that turns sand into fully operational solar panels in an on-site mini-factory
For developers of large-scale solar parks and industrial operators at remote locations, who are dissatisfied with the issues with current solar panels (no flexibility on prices, expensive logistics and non-environmental friendly production), Maana Electric transforms sand (from deserts or recycled from other materials) into fully operational solar panels in an on-site mini-factory which fits into shipping containers. That provides cheap, clean and locally produced solar production unlike any other solution on the market today. First, we purify the sand with several proprietary technologies. Then, with the purified quartz (up to 95%), we extract the silicon and purify it to solar-grade form (99.99999%). This silicon is then transformed into wafers and solar cells. The bulk of purified sand is used to produce 2 panes of glass. Finally, we assemble the solar modules which are bi-facial frameless ones.
