The assumption may be that solar panels won't be as effective in the winter due to the decrease in sunlight and the snow that lands atop them. Also, let's be honest, most technology isn't known for ...

Solar panels could soon become more eco-friendly thanks to a major breakthrough. Researchers have developed fully organic solar cells, doubling their previous efficiency. Traditional silicon-based ...

Engineers have developed a way to monitor solar cells at a microscopic level while they are operating – to discover exactly how damage caused by ultraviolet light can be naturally repaired.

Researchers have developed a perovskite-organic tandem solar cell that achieves 26.4 percent efficiency. Unlike rigid silicon modules, the lightweight design can generate power on curved or flexible ...

Engineers at the University of New South Wales have developed a real-time monitoring technique that reveals how silicon solar ...

A research team in Italy has tested the performance of semitransparent wide-bandgap perovskite solar cells in underwater (UW) environments and has found that, at a 0.5–1 cm depth, the devices achieve ...

Snow on solar panels isn’t a crisis anymore. In the cold U.S. states, a quick tap sends snow sliding off, as shown by ...

Ubiquitous Energy and Michigan State University researchers have created a fully transparent solar concentrator, which could turn any window or sheet of glass (like your smartphone's screen) into a ...

As summer temperatures in Osaka, Japan, soar closer to 100 degrees Fahrenheit, staff at Expo 2025 are beating the heat with utility vests that are powered by the sun. Developed by Toyota Group company ...
