Scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), have come up with 21 square centimeters mini perovskite panels with an efficiency of 18.13%. This is the size of a tile and could be considered as […]
Semi-transparent solar cells that can be incorporated into window glass of buildings are a “game-changer” that could transform the architecture paradigms, urban planning, and power generation grids. A team of researchers from the ARC Centre […]
We can divide solar cell technologies into three general subsets. They are called the first, second, and third generation of solar cell technologies due to their market entry time and types. The first generation consists […]
As one of the trends in the solar cell producing technologies, tandem solar cells, has attracted tremendous attention during recent years. Researchers took a perovskite solar cell, a crystal structure that is designed to harvest […]
Most recent researches have focused on the production of the transparent solar cell (TSC) based on organic materials such as a dye-sensitized solar cell (DSSC). Although they are good candidates to produce very thin solar […]
A team of researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory have come up with a new mechanism to speed up the charging of lithium-ion (Li-ion) batteries for EVs. The key component […]
Since the Stone Age, mankind was spending energy during the dark night, either for heat or light. What if one could turn this upside down & create energy out of the darkness? Wouldn’t that be […]
Here we present various characteristics of different type of thin-film solar cells to judge that what obstacles are prevented them from fabrication, mass production, or phasing out from the market. You can easily understand what […]
Organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells are potential candidates to drive low power consumption off-grid electronics for indoor applications. As the internet of things (IoT) expands, it is expected that we will need to have millions of […]
Agrivoltaics stands for the combination of agriculture plus photovoltaics which supports the dual-use of the land idea. The study at Arizona University focused on chiltepin pepper, jalapeno, and cherry tomato plants that were positioned under […]
