PVT Solar Panels: Perfect Power & Heating Choice for Mongolian Pasture Households

Some time ago, We received an inquiry from a Mongolian customer:  he asked about the quotation of PVT solar panels.

Mongolia's winter is cold and long, and there is enough sunlight in spring and summer. Many herdsmen live in grasslands without grid coverage. The core needs of local ranchers are very simple: power lighting, water pumps and small household appliances, and at the same time produce hot water to heat the houses and livestock sheds.

We recommended PVT panels to this client. Ordinary solar panels can only generate electricity and waste heat, while our PVT solar panels can generate electricity synchronously and recover heat energy. It can provide circulating hot water for households, and can also provide heating when paired with a domestic heat pump, a single set of PVT systems can meet daily needs,  greatly save the cost of purchasing heating equipment separately.

Our PVT solar panel is specially designed for cold areas solves the pain point of snow blocking power generation. The built-in heat cycle can melt the thin snow after sunrise, and the speed of recovery power generation is far faster than that of ordinary photovoltaic panels. For families with low daily electricity consumption, a set of independent units equipped with PVT solar panels, special controllers, low-temperature inverters and lithium batteries can operate stably all year round without any problems.

The customer asked for a quotation directly when he first communicated. We first learned about the lighting conditions and actual electricity consumption at his location, and then suggested that he install a PVT system. For the vast majority of ordinary pasture users, installing PVT separately requires lower investment in the early stage, simple installation, worry-free maintenance in the later stage, and more cost-effective; only in areas with extremely short sunlight and large power load, it is necessary to install wind turbine for backup.

After in-depth communication, the Mongolian customer confirmed that he only purchased a complete set of PVT solar panels for his own life and sheep pen heating, and did not plan to install wind tuirbine. This case is enough to show that PVT solar panels can be used alone in the cold plateau area, with cold-resistant controllers, inverters and energy storage batteries, which can provide stable power supply and heating throughout the year.

If you live and run pastures on a cold plateau with sufficient light like Mongolia, and want to solve the problem of power generation and heating in an integrated manner, but do not want to add complex supporting equipment, the independent PVT solar panel system is a cost-effective and long-term stable energy choice.
