Patent number: 8418401Abstract: A photovoltaic greenhouse includes a house structure having upstanding walls and a roof thereover to enclose a greenhouse space therein, and at least one thin-film solar cell module mounted on the roof for converting solar energy within a pre-selected light band of sunlight into electricity, wherein light not absorbed by the thin-film solar cell module passes through and enters the greenhouse space, which can be utilized by plants or crops for photosynthesis. The thin-film solar cell module has high transmittance of light in the wavelength intervals, for example, 400-450 nm and 640-700 nm, required by the cultured plants or crops inside the greenhouse space for photosynthesis.Type: GrantFiled: April 20, 2012Date of Patent: April 16, 2013Assignee: Lite-On Green Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Mei-Chen Chuang, Cheng Chung

Publication number: 20110005128Abstract: A solar energy greenhouse includes a main structure, a roof structure disposed on the main structure and a plurality of thin-film solar cell assemblies which are disposed on the roof structure in an unequal gap defined there between. The thin-film solar cell assemblies can absorb sunlight and generate electrical energy. The unequal gaps between the thin-film solar cell assemblies are determined from the radiation angle of the sunlight and the position of plants in the solar energy greenhouse, so the amount that the sunlight radiates on the thin-film solar cell assemblies and the plants can achieve a better distribution, which improves the amount of electrical energy generated by the thin-film solar cell assemblies and the rates of growth of the plants.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 25, 2009Publication date: January 13, 2011Applicant: LITE-ON GREEN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.Inventors: Mei-Chen CHUANG, Cheng Chung, Ming-Chao Hsiao
