Managed Reflection Gains
Four trial sites, shown as Sites A to D until each host agrees to be named. The modelled gain, untreated against treated, and the sunshine of each site's typical year. As measured data arrives, it is drawn over the model as daily, weekly and monthly averages.
Coastal New South Wales.
Central Australia, arid.
Illawarra, New South Wales.
Melbourne, Victoria.
Trial rows on solar-farm mountings
Rear-side gain as a share of front-side energy. Blue is what untreated ground already gives. Orange is what Namindo's managed reflection adds.

Demonstrators: frame and treatment, shown apart
Effective irradiance on the modules against a flat frame lying over grass, on the same weather. Blue is the gain from the frame itself. Orange is what managed reflection adds on top.
Bars are in percentage points over the flat frame on grass. Measured against its own untreated frame, managed reflection adds 12.2 per cent on Unit 1 and 12.7 per cent on Unit 2.

Sunshine at each site, typical year
Monthly global horizontal irradiation of the typical year each model was run on. The logged series is drawn over these as it comes in.

About these numbers
These are results only. How the gain is achieved, the treatments and the model are Namindo's and are not shown on this page. Each site is modelled on its own public typical meteorological year (PVGIS, 2005 to 2023). Figures are before temperature, mismatch, soiling and inverter losses. The trial measures each site against an untreated control, and measured results are added here as they are logged.
