The Spring Equinox is here, and it’s time for photovoltaics to shine

  "The spring breeze is like fine wine, which makes everything unconscious." In this poetic and energetic season, we usher in the Spring Equinox. As the fourth solar term in spring, the Spring Equinox has a special meaning. On this day, the sun shines directly on the equator, and the day and night are equal around the world. After that, the days gradually get longer and the nights get shorter, which also means mild weather, abundant rainfall and bright sunshine. The Spring Equinox not only brings vitality to nature, but also brings new opportunities to the photovoltaic industry.

  From the perspective of climate and light conditions, after the spring equinox, the solar altitude angle gradually increases and the light time is significantly extended, which is undoubtedly a very favorable condition for photovoltaic power generation. For most photovoltaic power stations, the peak power generation period (April to October) is about to come. At this time, the photovoltaic panels, like hardworking energy collectors, efficiently convert solar energy into electrical energy under sufficient light, and continuously provide clean electricity for our lives and production. ​

  Take a large photovoltaic power station located in a region rich in sunlight resources in my country as an example. After the spring equinox, its average daily power generation has increased significantly compared with winter, with an increase of up to 30% - 50%. These clean electricity not only meets part of the local electricity demand and reduces dependence on traditional fossil energy, but also is transmitted to other areas through grid connection, bringing light and convenience to more people.

  In this spring equinox when everything is revived and people are happy to get close to nature, photovoltaics are also integrated into our life scenes in a unique way, adding convenience and environmental protection to life. ​

In outdoor leisure activities, portable photovoltaic power generation equipment is very useful. When people go out for an outing, picnic, or camping, portable solar chargers can easily charge mobile phones, tablets, cameras and other electronic devices, allowing people to enjoy nature without worrying about insufficient power of electronic devices, and to record beautiful moments and share happy times. ​

  In the field of agricultural production, photovoltaic agricultural greenhouses play an important role during the spring equinox. The photovoltaic panels on the top of the greenhouse can not only generate electricity to create economic benefits, but also block excessive light for crops in the greenhouse, regulate temperature and humidity, and provide a suitable environment for crop growth. During the critical period of crop growth during the spring equinox, photovoltaic agricultural greenhouses help crops thrive, ensure a bumper harvest of grain and fruits and vegetables, and achieve a perfect combination of energy and agriculture.
