IMOMEC, associated laboratory of IMEC, located on the Hasselt University campus; developed a method to stabilize the morphology of nano-solar cells, and it resulted an impressive improvement.
With these stable solar cells efficiency can be compared with the standard ideals of organic solar cells. This discovery paves the way for commercial solar cells with a lifespan [...]
Next November 12th and 13th the 2nd Solar Thermoelectric Concentration Meeting will be held in Seville, Spain, and the following points will be addressed:
• The latest stuff in storage – Latest solutions for concentrated solar thermal energy. Discover the future of thermal energy storage for large-scale plants.
• Royal Decree – taking into account [...]
These new solar cells, with the size of a 12 letter from the computer (as in Microsoft Word when you use font size 12), are being tested to supply energy to microscopic machines.
Researchers from the University of South Florida said that these are the smallest solar cells in the world; it takes 20 aligned cells [...]
This is a simple solar furnace, the type of concentration that can it generates is a temperature high enough to melt aluminum and other metals. By following the instructions detailed below you can build a solar concentrator of any size.
It consists of small mirrors stick on one end with silicone and then are adjusted by [...]
Red for bad, green for good. European consumers have long been aware of the energy labels for appliances, to separate colors, offer letters. In the future, heaters and boilers will also include these tags. The European Commission is currently outlining the rules for implementing the scheme.
The European Union wants to phase out the most inefficient [...]
American Greg Johanson developed in 1981 a car tricycle with photovoltaic solar cells half horsepower, 60v with a direct current motor powered by a five-under 12 V batteries connected in series and charged five of 35 solar modules w.
His average speed was 50 km / h. The pioneer vehicle was stolen and never recovered, but [...]
About 150 businesses and microenterprises and rural producers eco artisans gathered at the Fountain of Xochipilli to jump-start the first festival of organic products and for sustainable consumption, organized by environmentalists and Green Pages New Ventures.
Pots made of glass or plastic bottles, solar water heaters, steam washing machines for cars, organic soaps and even recycled [...]
Over 600 students from 13 countries competing this week in Rio de Janeiro in a scientific Olympiads in showing their skills in various technical areas and are a showcase for future employment.
The competition, which began Tuesday and ends Saturday, is divided into two parts, the Knowledge Olympics, involving 562 young Brazilians in vocational courses and [...]
As the cost of electricity goes up, alternative energy solutions – like solar power – may be more practical. The problem with solar is the initial investment required to install photovoltaic panels can require $ 50,000 to match the power of the average of the requirements for a house.
The idea is to find places that [...]
The buzz around the extension of federal investment and production tax credits has reached a fever pitch.
And that is good news for your wallet.
If you are not familiar with the situation, here is a summary in one sentence:
The U.S. investment in tax credit (ITC), which affects solar energy and production tax credit (PTC), which affects [...]
