So there is a lot of discussion on panel temperature and winter being a great time for power production due to panel cooling.
Was considering an idea which would not work well on the roof but might be a consideration for a ground mount situation. There is plenty written about solar panel driven cooling fans in attics. Was sipping the second cup of coffee and was pondering an idea. What if one were to string a separate 100w panel to the side and attach it to one or two cooling fans which were positioned underneath a ground array? As the intensity of the sun increased the fans would pull air from the ground and allow air flow at the undersides of the solar panels.
Has anyone tried this?
