Portable solar energy towers!! IIT Delhi researchers have developed portable solar energy towers that are shadow-less and highly efficient in solar power generation even in non-peak sunlight hours. They are shadow-less because the solar panels at bottom are not shadowed by the top panels. The solar panels along with high reflectivity mirrors in the non-mechanical tracking solar tower are vertically mounted in a particular way that they fall in the line-of-sight of Sun during morning, mid-day and evening hours, hence leading to high efficiency solar power generation. They are auto-rotating, come in both mechanical and non-mechanical tracking, have a high energy density. Mechanical and non-mechanical tracking solar PV towers offer 5kW and 3kW capacity respectively. They are useful for EV charging stations , rooftop high-efficiency solar power generation for independent Houses/ Schools/ Hospitals/ Shops/ Telecom Towers/IT sector etc and can be utilized for agriculture purpose such as solar water pumping, charging battery for tractors etc.  Great. Join with me to congratulate Professor Dalip Singh Mehta and team and wish them all success
