Bertrand Piccard makes no apologies for being an aviation enthusiast, and believes that despite its current woes the industry has been made a scapegoat for carbon emissions, [...]
A team of researchers affiliated with UNIST has come up with a novel electrode that could greatly improve the stability of perovskite solar cells (PSCs), the most [...]
Marina Freitag, Royal Society University Research Fellow, Newcastle University Internet connected devices need power. That either means connecting them to the grid, which [...]
Transparent solar panels developed by Australian researchers are on track to revolutionize the way photovoltaics are integrated into buildings. Recent efficiency improvements [...]
What if solar cells worked at night? That’s no joke, according to Jeremy Munday, professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC Davis. In fact, a [...]
Although currently used renewable energy sources such as wind and solar energy are surpassing analyst expectations, geothermal energy is still considered the poor stepchild [...]
After developing a way to produce solar cells using materials previously considered too expensive for use on Earth, scientists at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory [...]
The ever-more-humble carbon nanotube may be just the device to make solar panels far more efficient – and anything else that loses energy through heat. Rice University [...]
Solar desalination methods have been around for awhile, both for powering the process, and to help with evaporation. Rice University’s solar-powered approach for [...]
A broad class of materials called perovskites is considered one of the most promising avenues for developing new, more efficient solar cells. But the virtually limitless [...]
