Austria can increase the solar share into its electricity mix by several options; building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV), agriculture plus photovoltaic (agrophotovoltaics), road-integrated photovoltaic, floating photovoltaic (FPV), and vehicle integrated photovoltaic (VIPV). It is important to note […]
Sono Motors is planning to embed “interdigitated back contact” (IBC) technology, in order to extend their Solar Car range. According to Sono Motor, thanks to the new technology, 248 solar cells can be seamlessly integrated […]
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 […]
Some of environmentalists have been criticizing solar photovoltaics (PV) for the additional space occupied. Especially they focus on the effects of ground-mounted solar systems. As a solution for this challenge, we can put forward integrated […]
Flexible and lightweight modules are a fast-growing niche that allows for new and creative PV applications, such as; membrane roofs, portable power plants, marine installations, vehicle usage (VIPV), landfill covers or other infrastructure projects. According […]
Recently we had an antique article about Selenium & Charles Fritts, but why these two are related? In 1883, New York inventor Charles Fritts created the first solar cell by coating Selenium with a thin […]
