The 2019 added capacity for all types of power generation technologies reached 265 GW, where the share of solar power was much bigger than other technologies. Solar power technology is constituent of 45% of new […]
The past decade was the take-off time for solar power technology and it is believed that this will continue in the forthcoming decade. This is only thanks to drastic cost reduction in the price of […]
Solar Water Heating (SWH) is all about converting the “Sun Power” into “Heat” for water heating purposes, this is done using a solar thermal collector. SWHs are mostly used in “residential” areas and some industrial […]
As a top 100 startups in Swiss, Insolight has been awarded 10.6 million euros by the European Union to its HIPERION project. The primary aim of HIPERION is to scale up the production of Insolight’s […]
Spain is one of the European countries with the most hours of sunshine. The country initially had a leading role in the development of solar power. Spain is one of the top ten countries by […]
Hydrogen will play a key role in reducing our dependence on fossil fuels. It can be sustainably produced by using solar energy to split water molecules. The resulting clean energy can be stored, used to […]
In science, the Shockley–Queisser limit, refers to the maximum theoretical efficiency of a conventional solar cell using a single p-n junction to collect power from the cell. It was first calculated by William Shockley and […]
2% Efficiency. Until now, solar cell researchers have concentrated mostly on conventional silicon solar cells and perovskite solar technology separately in order to create products with the highest possible efficiency. Merging the research may be […]
Lointek, is a firm based in Biscay, Spain, has been selected for the engineering, manufacture, installation, and launch of DEWA IV, the world’s biggest thermosolar power plant that will start operating in 2022, in Dubai, […]
Usually, solar cells collect sunlight on their entire surface, converting it to electricity at perhaps 15-19 percent efficiency — meaning about 85 percent of the energy is lost in the conversion process. However Insolight solar […]
