Asset Overview

The Piezoelectric Solar Panel works almost exactly like a piezoelectric tile. As the pressure of wind, rain, snow, and hail creates energy in the normal way, the solar panel top allows this device to be productive anywhere in the world at anytime. What allows it to function as both is due to the solar panel’s flexibility. In times of high wind, the panel’s flex will be limited and friction will force more power to be generated. Likewise, in times of lower wind, the panel’s flex will be higher and the piezoelectric nodes can be at more power. The second version adds a connection bar between the top panel and the bottom base - and in Solidworks this time.
