Sopogy, a manufacturer of proprietary micro concentrated solar power (MicroCSP) technologies, says it has received certification from the Solar Rating and Certification Corp. (SRCC) in its recently established OG-100 classification for concentrating solar collectors.
The collector efficiency factor was measured at 0.5897, and the unit passed all of the SRCC's third-party laboratory and outdoor tests, according to Sopogy. SRCC awarded Sopogy's concentrating solar collector the OG (Official Guidelines) 100 certification for meeting all durability, safety and thermal performance requirements.
‘The SRCC rating enables applications where Sopogy's technologies are installed to qualify for numerous state solar programs and validates the performance of Sopogy's collector technology,’ notes Darren T. Kimura, CEO and president of Sopogy.
