– Monash University Malaysia researchers explore graphene applications to reduce solar panel operating temperatures.
– Graphene can be utilized in passive cooling methods, such as selective absorber coatings, and active cooling techniques using nanofluids.
– The study categorizes graphene technologies into passive (pre-illumination and post-illumination) and active cooling methods.
– Challenges include high costs, complex fabrication processes, and the need for further research to improve efficiency and reduce expenses.
