Researchers from University of Genoa and University of Rome Tor Vergata are taking on two well-known metal halide perovskite (MHP) solar PV challenges, reducing the amount of lead while maintaining a ...

Researchers from Aalto University in Finland demonstrated a proof-of-concept of laser-processed glass to be used as a type of solar concentrator for building integrated PV (BIPV) applications. The ...

Since its invention in the 1970s, the luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) has aimed to enhance solar energy capture by using luminescent materials to convert and concentrate sunlight onto ...

Researchers in China have created a transparent, colorless, and unidirectional solar concentrator that can be directly coated onto standard window glass and used to harvest sunlight without changing ...

Solar-pumped laser technology harnesses concentrated solar radiation to excite laser-active media, converting direct sunlight into a coherent beam. This approach offers a renewable and environmentally ...

New research suggests that there might be other ways to generate solar energy than just trying to make individual solar cells super-efficient. Scientists are always on the lookout for ways to make our ...

IBM Research and Switzerland-based Airlight Energy today announced a new parabolic dish that increases the sun’s radiation by 2,000 times while also producing fresh water and air conditioning. The new ...

Solar collectors and absorbers convert solar radiation into thermal energy, playing a crucial role in meeting global heating demands across various sectors.

Crystalline-silicon solar panels are efficient, reliable, and dominate the solar-panel market. However, new third-gen solar technology could do what c-Si solar panels cannot, including flexible, ...
