Imithombo yezindaba yase-US ibike ukukhathazeka kwezakhamuzi mayelana nobuthi obuvuzayo obuvela ezikhungweni zelanga eTexas ezilinyazwe yisichotho. I-Solar Energy Industries Association (SEIA) iyinqabile imibiko, equkethe imininingwane engamanga.
Isichotho eTexas muva nje sidale umonakalo osabalele endaweni ye-Fighting Jays solar, indawo engu-350 MW ephakathi kwezinkulu kunazo zonke e-United States. Imibiko yezindaba yasakazwa ngokushesha ngemva komcimbi, ixwayisa ngengozi ye-cadmium telluride evuza kumaphaneli aqhekekile futhi ifake ubuthi etafuleni lamanzi eliseduze.
"Okungikhathazayo wumonakalo wesichotho oqhamuke futhi wabhodloza lawa maphaneli - manje sesinamakhemikhali anobuthi obunamandla okungenzeka ukuthi avuze ematafuleni ethu amanzi," isakhamuzi saseTexas sitshele i-Fox News esebenzisana ne-KRIV-TV. “Nginomndeni – izingane ezimbili nonkosikazi. Omakhelwane bami banezingane kanti inqwaba yezinye izakhamuzi ezihlala emanzini asemthonjeni zikhathazekile ngokuthi amakhemikhali asevuza emanzini ethu.”
I-SEIA ikhiphe umbiko owenqaba le mibiko, eqale yabika ulwazi olungamanga.
“Kunamahemuhemu athi amasolar aphukile aqukethe i-cadmium telluride. Lokhu kungamanga sibili,” kusho u-SEIA. "Ipulazi lelanga le-Fighting Jays lakhiwe kusetshenziswa amaseli e-crystalline silicon photovoltaic, angenayo leyo nto."
Amaphaneli elanga amaningi afakwe e-United States ayingxenye ye-silicon, into etholakala yonke indawo esihlabathini ne-quartz, futhi yakhelwe ku-glassware, ama-countertops, amathoyizi kanye nemishini yekhompyutha.
“Ngaphezu kwalokho, ngisho noma amaphaneli equkethe amazinga ayingozi ezinto ezinobuthi, 'ukuvuza' akunakwenzeka," kusho u-SEIA.
I-SEIA yachaza ukuthi amaphaneli e-Flying Jay anamashidi amabili epulasitiki esobala evalwe uphawu, embozwe ngengilazi epholile, afakwe olunye ungqimba lwepulasitiki noma ingilazi ngemuva, futhi avalwe ohlakeni lwe-aluminium.
"Ngisho noma ingilazi iphuka futhi ishiywe ingakathintwa noma ingasetshenzisiwe, kungathatha amashumi eminyaka ukukhipha noma yiluphi uhlobo lwento kumaphaneli aphukile," kusho u-SEIA.
I-SEIA ihlole inethiwekhi yamaphaneli e-solar recyclers angacubungula amaphaneli ayizigidi eziyi-10 ngonyaka. Ukulungisa nokunika amandla kabusha kuyinketho kwezinye izikhungo.
Kodwa-ke, akunakuphikwa ukuthi ubungozi besichotho buyinkinga esemthethweni embonini yelanga, ikakhulukazi ezingxenyeni zaseTexas. Eminyakeni emihlanu edlule, ukulimala kwesichotho kubangele ukulahlekelwa kwephrojekthi engaphezu kuka-50%, kusho uchwepheshe wezingozi zesichotho u-VDE. Nakuba ingavamile, le micimbi ingaveza ukulahlekelwa kwamarekhodi. Ngo-2022, ukulahleka kwesichotho kudlule amaRandi ayizigidi ezingama-300 eTexas kuphela.
I-SEIA ithe nakuba ama-solar panel engavikelekile ezinhlekeleleni zemvelo, kanjalo namazakwabo ezinto ezimbiwa phansi. Iziteshi zokupompa igesi yemvelo kanye nezinqwaba zamalahle zingaqhwaza, izizinda zikagesi zingakhukhula, futhi iziphepho zingaphoqelela izikhungo eziphehla amandla enuzi ukuba zivale amasonto amaningi ngesikhathi.
Ngenkathi amakhanda akhulumayo ebone umonakalo we-Flying Jays njengesibonelo sokungathembeki kwelanga, isiphepho sisakhiqiza amandla ngokwengxenye, naphezu komonakalo osabalele ovela emcimbini wesichotho esiphezulu. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, izikhungo zegesi yemvelo eziqandisiwe zitholwe ziyimbangela yokunqamuka okusabalele kulandela iWinter Storm Uri ngo-2021, eyashiya izinkulungwane zingenawo amandla futhi yabangela cishe amabhiliyoni angama- $ 130 emiphumeleni yezomnotho eseduze.
Umonakalo e-Fighting Jays wawusabalele, futhi njengoba ingozi yesichotho yempahla yelanga ikhula, imboni iyahamba ukuze ibhekane nalolu daba. Okwakamuva pv umagazini i-webinar ne-VDE ibheke amasu ahlukahlukene okunciphisa ubungozi besichotho, okuhlanganisa ukukhetha iphaneli yelanga efanelekile yamaphrojekthi, kusetshenziswa izindlela ezilawulwa yisoftware ezitshekisa amaphaneli kude nemithelela yesichotho eqondile, kanye namanye amasu. I-webinar iphinde yaphetha ngengxoxo ngephrojekthi ye-Fighting Jays kanye nezingozi zobuthi obuhlobene namaphaneli elanga, kuhlanganise nalawo aqukethe i-cadmium telluride.
