Solar-storage systems in deserts face extreme heat, sand, and UV exposure.
Desert-Specific Issues:
- Thermal Stress: Day-night temperature swings cause expansion/contraction, loosening connections.
- Dust Ingress: Sand can clog cooling fans and degrade seals.
- UV Degradation: Prolonged sun exposure weakens plastic components.
Adaptation Tips:
- Sand-proof air filters for cooling systems.
- UV-resistant materials for battery enclosures.
- Frequent maintenance checks in dusty environments.
LFP batteries can thrive in deserts—with the right protections.
