Photovoltaic Prototype by CdTe Cadmium Tellurium

I tested a prototype from a CdTe Cadmium Tellurium photovoltaic with far superior features at weak light. (Results calculated for 1m²)

I got 1996-07-26 a prototype from a CdTe Photovoltaic to test. This Prototype is from begin 1996. New prototypes are told to be 50% better, but as long as I have only the old prototype, I can publish only the results from the old CdTe cell. But the results are really a sensation.

Car driving is not always top speed on the highway and solar energy is not only 1000 W per squaremeter. So the test starts in the shadow:

Photovoltaic - Electric power direct from light
	Even a far north situated industrial nation like Germany could produce a big part of the needed energy by the roofs of the houses. Photovoltaic has much potential.

Thin layer photovoltaic
	Less material and less energy usage at the production, good outcome at cloudy sky and the possibility for flexible PVs are the advantages of thin film technology.

Test results from a CdTe Photovoltaic cell
	The test showed, that the thin film Cadmium Tellurium photovoltaic cell is superior at cloudy weather conditions. Only at full sun shine, the Silizium cell was in front.
