The solar energy program Risø has been conducting research in polymer solar cells, an inexpensive alternative to existing silicon solar cells. The investigation is now in a late stage a demonstration plant was built at Risø DTU.
Since the start of Risø’s research on solar cells based on polymeric materials has had a strong emphasis on [...]
In solar thermal technology, the sun’s energy is used to heat a substance that produces steam to drive a turbine.
Google has developed a prototype of new technology mirrors that could halve the cost of building a solar thermal plant. If the tests yield positive results, the product could be ready in one to three years.
The [...]
While Ausra CEO Robert Fishman was far from excited yesterday about the BLM solar moratorium policy, he was perfectly happy to tout his company’s new 130,000 square foot manufacturing facility in Las Vegas.
“This is a crossover point for this industry. Ausra’s factory is accelerating Nevada’s and America’s solar future by tripling worldwide manufacturing capacity, relieving [...]
The second largest photovoltaic plant in the archipelago and is located in the Llano area of the Corner, in the town of Arica, was officially opened yesterday by the chairman of the regional executive, Paulino Rivero, and by the head of the Tenerife Cabildo, Ricardo Melchior.
The complex, which is smaller than the one with the [...]
According to official newspaper reported Monday “China Daily”, the plant will be the first solar thermal power station of 1.5 megawatts of Asia, will begin construction in March and will provide power to 30,000 homes in 2010, as announced by Wang Zhifeng, project leader.
Designed by academia itself, the plant has a projected cost of [...]
Earlier this week, the China Huaneng Group, started building a solar power plant that will be China’s largest, which will have the capacity to generate 166 megawatts in the province of Yunnan.
The project costs a total of one thousand three hundred million dollars, is planned to start operating in 2010. According to China Electricity Council, [...]
SunPower Corp., a global manufacturer of components and solar energy systems, announced the completion of a solar power plant capable of producing 18 MW of energy in Badajoz, Spain.
SunPower makes solar cells, solar panels and solar systems with high efficiency. This project installed SunPower T20 Tracker, a system that follows the sun as the [...]
The independent community of Extremadura counts at present with more than 500 “serious and resisted” projects of photovoltaic power solar plants that will generate about 1,900 megawatts, besides other 30 projects of thermosolar facilities, which will suppose other 1,500 megawatts of power.
These data was offered by the advisor of Industry and Environment, Jose Navarrese Luis, [...]
Solúcar, of the Abengoa Group, inaugurated at the end of March the thermoelectric plant PS10, first of a very ambitious project that it will feed from electricity all the city of Seville.
The PS10, located in Sanlúcar la Mayor (Seville) with 11 MW of power, is made by a field of 624 heliostats, of 120m2 [...]
First Solar is teaming up with Sempra Generation to build in the Nevada desert what could become the largest thin film photovoltaic plant in North America. The 10-megawatt project is located 64 kilometers southeast of Las Vegas, along with natural gas plant for Sempra in El Dorado.
“As a result, the impact to the environment [...]
