MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641048414 A) filed by Srinivasa Ramanujan Institute Of Technology; Dr. K. Dadasikandar; A. Hemalatha; H. Gireeshkumar; and M. Rakesh, Anantapur, Andhra Pradesh, on April 16, for 'ai-driven active cooling and iot monitoring system with integrated renewable energy for lcpv silicon solar panels.'

Inventor(s) include Srinivasa Ramanujan Institute Technology; Dr. K. Dadasikandar; A. Hemalatha; H. Gireeshkumar; and M. Rakesh.

The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses an intelligent thermal regulation and monitoring system designed for Low Concentrated Photovoltaic (LCPV) silicon solar panels to increase the efficiency of the solar panels. The system integrates artificial intelligence-based adaptive cooling with Random Forest Algorithm, real-time Internet of Things (IoT) monitoring and renewable energy-powered auxiliary operation to enhance photovoltaic efficiency under high-temperature conditions. Solar panels operating under concentrated sunlight experience significant thermal accumulation, resulting in efficiency degradation and accelerated material wear. The proposed system employs distributed Temperature and humidity sensor (DHT 11), Gas sensor, and electrical performance monitoring units to continuously evaluate panel conditions. An embedded controller Arduino Mega executes a trained AI model capable of predicting temperature rise trends and dynamically regulating active cooling mechanisms, liquid-assisted cooling channels, or thermoelectric modules. The cooling subsystem is powered through an integrated renewable energy module with energy storage, ensuring minimal parasitic load on the primary photovoltaic output. IoT connectivity enables cloud-based data visualization, fault diagnostics, predictive maintenance alerts, and performance optimization analytics. The invention significantly improves energy yield, enhances operational safety, and extends panel lifespan, particularly in high-irradiance environments."
