These floating homes generate much of their own energy with photovoltaic solar panels.

这些漂浮的房屋通过光伏太阳能板自己发电。

His team is interested in where photovoltaic panels should be located in order to maximize energy production.

他的团队想知道在哪里放置太阳能光伏板才能让发电量达到最大。

And suddenly it was the photovoltaic panel itself was no longer some technical installation that you hide on the roof.

突然间，光伏板本身不再是藏在屋顶上的技术装置。

The latter, inaugurated in 2009, has 8,844 photovoltaic panels producing up to 1.14 GWh of electricity annually.

后者于 2009 年落成，拥有 8,844 块光伏电池板，每年可产生高达 1.14 GWh 的电力。

The plan is for the whole endeavour to be powered  entirely by renewable energy, with photovoltaic panels on every rooftop.

该计划是为了让整个项目完全由可再生能源供电，每个屋顶都安装光伏电池板。

The most comprehensive database covering American solar-power installations, for instance, is thought to miss around a fifth of the photovoltaic panels actually installed on the ground.

例如，覆盖美国太阳能装置最全面的数据库被认为遗漏了大约五分之一的实际安装在地面上的光伏电池板。

It removes the irregularities that  can result from adverse weather and that perpetual day-night cycle that limits  the output of traditional photovoltaic panels.

它消除了恶劣天气可能导致的不规则现象，以及限制传统光伏面板输出的永久昼夜循环。

The researchers estimate that installing photovoltaic panels on just one percent of croplands worldwide would be enough to meet all of humanity's global electricity needs.

研究人员估计，仅在全球百分之一的农田上安装光伏电池板就足以满足人类全球的所有电力需求。
