Perovskites may sound like perogies or piroshkis, but no high-carb-cheese-and-potato-flavor-pocket can do what they do. They’re minerals that can do the same party trick as many of your favorite ...

One of the hindrances to large-scale solar adoption, especially in cities, is where to install the chunky panels. Rooftops?

Imagine a car whose windows and sunroof can help top up its battery while parked under the sun, or a pair of smart glasses ...

One of the most interesting updates in the solar energy space comes from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem (via EES Solar), where researchers have developed 3D-printed, semi-transparent, flexible ...

To make these solar panels, Indian companies need PV cells—which are the small parts that convert sunlight into electricity. Since India doesn’t yet make enough of these cells on its own, it is ...

NTU researchers have developed ultra-thin transparent solar cells that could turn windows, car glass, and wearables into clean power sources without changing how they look.The Latest Tech News, Delive ...

Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the material actually help, creating networks that separate and guide electric ...

Dendrimers enable perovskite solar cells to recover from moisture damage by capturing key components, allowing repeatable self-healing without sacrificing efficiency. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Solar panels ...

Solar cells that combine traditional silicon with cutting-edge perovskites could push the efficiency of solar panels to new heights. Beyond Silicon, Caelux, First Solar, Hanwha Q Cells, Oxford PV, ...

A new solar breakthrough may overcome a long-standing efficiency barrier. Researchers used a “spin-flip” metal complex to capture and multiply energy from sunlight through singlet fission. The result ...

A team of scientists in China has developed a targeted passivation technique that significantly ...
