(MENAFN) GlassPoint Solar has deployed new optical sensors developed by the DLR Institute of Solar Research and Black Photon Instruments (BPI), Times of Oman reported.
The sensors were deployed in the company's 7MWth solar EOR project in Oman in order to provide precise real-world solar energy data to enhance performance.
GlassPoint's chief operating officer said: "GlassPoint is committed to leading the way in Middle East solar data and field design."
The new sensors can measure circumsolar radiation in environments prone to extreme heat and high levels of airborne dust, dirt and sand, which can deflect the sunlight and reduce the efficiency of a solar thermal system.
