I have been watching this debate with interest. I have not seen anything that really gives only the facts and one would assume they are out there somewhere. JoySav is repeatedly trotting out an excel graph that apparently show DSC being 30% more efficient than conventional solar BUT anyone can fabricate a graph on excel, it doesn't prove anything. Where are the real number to prove this claim?
What are we really talking about here? The sun level does not stay at the same level all day ie 1/3 sun level for somewhere between 4 and 8 hours a day depending on the season, it rises in the morning and goes down at night there is only a short period of time where the optimum sun level is available. I don't see how JoySav can state "At the end of the day 1 square meter of Dyesol DSC gives of 85 watts per hour at 1/3 sunshine which is European average conditions" Is JoySav implying that in full sun levels (1000W) DSC would be some 300W+/m2? Does it mean that the panels would produce 85W/hr for one hour a day as the sun reaches it optimum level and then less as it is rising and falling?
Q: Just how much power is made at say 1/10th sun level, 1/2 sun level and full sun level? Does anyone know? Can anyone suggest where the information could be accessed?
Something doesn't add up here...
