Crystal growth on a nano/microscale level produces “match-head”-like, three-dimensional structures that enhance light absorption and photovoltaic efficiency. This is the first large structure grown on a nanowire tip and it creates a completely new architecture for harnessing energy.
adminPortable solar generators are used when regular electrical power is unavailable, such as during a power outage or on a camping trip. These units collect energy from the sun’s rays…
The United States has fallen behind on offshore wind power, experts say. Their findings show that while offshore wind turbines have been successfully deployed in Europe since 1991, the U.S. is further from commercial-scale offshore wind deployment today than it was in 2005.
Researchers have discovered a new approach to the production of fuels. Their new method can be used to produce much cleaner diesel. It can quickly be scaled up for industrial use. In five to 10 years, we may see the first cars driven by this new clean diesel.
adminSolar generators could be our way out of the trench of negative facts we read every day. Increasing global demand for power, daily warnings about our environment, ever increasing carbon…
adminThere can be many reasons for wanting to install solar panels on a property, be it a residential or commercial building. With the average annual cost of a household’s electric…
adminA lithium-ion battery that self heats if the temperature is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit has multiple applications, but may have the most impact on relieving winter ‘range anxiety’ for electric vehicle owners, according to a team of researchers.
