Introduction Airbus has recently unveiled three futuristic, zero-emission hydrogen-powered aircraft as a part of its ambitions to decarbonize the aviation industry [1,2]. The designs of these three eco-friendly hydrogen-powered aircraft include a “blended-wing body”, turboprop […]
Initial article published: March 2022 Updated: August 3rd 2023 Introduction: Floating photovoltaic is quite a niche market compared to mainstream or ground-mounted PV module installation. While it is considered as the third wave of expanding […]
Introduction All conventional crystalline silicon-based solar panels consist of 5 layers. These layers are [1,2]. Silicon solar cells have been embedded in the middle of the other four layers. Although the process of putting silicon […]
The PV module price has had a sharp decline since 2010 so that it has dropped more than 80% over the last decade [1]. This drastic decline is partly due to the constant pressure on […]
Overview There are two types of solar thermal systems passive systems and active systems. The passive system refers to when the sun shines through the windows and warms up the environment. Some buildings in different […]
Solar energy is the most abundant source of renewable energy. But one of the main challenges of harnessing solar energy is that its harnessing technologies, photovoltaic modules (PV modules), need more terrestrial space. However capturing […]
New shingled module with a power output of 620 W was launched by the SunPower spinoff, Maxeon Solar Technologies. SunPower is a US-based group with its majority stake being held by French energy giant Total. […]
This is the last article on the two-article series on backsheet and materials used in manufacturing. As it was mentioned in the first part, the market shares of backsheet materials are directly proportional to module […]
In this first of two-article series, we will explain the role of backsheet and materials used in manufacturing. A conventional photovoltaic module (PV module) consists of five general layers. These layers include glass, front encapsulant, […]
Airbus recently unveiled three futuristic, zero-emission hydrogen-powered aircrafts as a part of its ambitions to decarbonize the aviation industry. The designs of these three eco-friendly hydrogen-powered aircrafts include a “blended-wing body”, turboprop design, and turbofan […]
