A simple pattern etched onto the photovoltaic panels improves light absorption by 125%. Here are the secrets of a simple but disruptive idea.
The use of materials usually used for satellites allows the new solar panels to set a world efficiency record: almost 50%
The thermal photovoltaic will be able to allow drones to fly for days and will feed the space probes for centuries.
One day we may literally “grow” our own energy by watering and nourishing our biological solar cells.
The future will be made of solar cells, yes, but super light and very small. In fact, MIT researchers announced to the world that they had created the lightest and thinnest solar cell ever, which could easily be placed on any material and surface, such as t-shirts, smartphones and sheets of paper. To always have a clean energy source. To show everyone that the cells are really very light, scientists placed the solar cell on a soap bubble, without ... Read more
