The EU China solar panel trade war is only one of the series of problems that have been plaguing the solar panel industry in the last few years. This industry in Europe has seen many highs and lows, raising a fair share of contentious issues in the recent past. However, Read more »
One of the biggest deterrents to more residents not investing in solar power is the fact that the installation process costs nearly half of what the house may cost according to the geographical location. Although financing is available through many companies, it could still take you more than 10 years Read more »
We all know that solar power generated by solar cells is one of the cleanest energy source we can tap into. But for the solar technology to get to where it is today, it has required huge amount of energy, ironically most of which from fossil fuels.
EPFL`s Institute of Microengineering in Neuchâtel, Switzerland, has created a “hybrid” solar cell based on the technologies behind amorphous thin film and monocrystalline silicon that performs at a conversion efficiency of 21.4% – higher than any other solar cell using this type of substrate.
For the past one and a half decades, researches have been working on improving the technology of plastic solar cells. They have the potential to revolutionize the way we harness solar energy both in terms of efficiency and costs. At Flinders University in Adelaide, South Australia, PhD candidate Anirudh Sharma Read more »
Many individuals are becoming more and more environmentally conscious in every part of their lives. Individuals and families are realizing the impact their decisions have on the environment around them, and are actively doing things to try and mitigate the environmental impact of their decisions. However, people also realize that Read more »
Renewable energy sources became one of the most appealing issues in modern industry, as they benefit both global economy and social livelihood. A big number of countries has already realized successful projects of solar, wind and tidal power plants, using the possibilities provided by local natural conditions. Mostly it is Read more »
The artificial leaf is a device designed to mimic nature’s photosynthesis. Using nano technology, scientists have developed an advanced solar cell made out of semiconductors, with the size of a typical playing card. It basically looks like an ordinary chip, but with the ability to generate energy with sunlight and Read more »
