BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (WIAT) — Huffman High School’s Academy of Architecture and Construction students have built their first ...

Light can hit a lead halide perovskite crystal that is anything but pristine and still end up as useful electric current.

A study conducted by Penn State University researchers has revealed that organic solar cells ...

Solar power continues to grow—accounting for most new capacity added to U.S. electric grids in 2024—but the mid-1950s technology most often used to capture the sun's energy comes with environmental ...

Metal-halide perovskite solar cells are attractive for next-generation photovoltaics due to their low fabrication cost and rapidly rising efficiencies. However, exposure to light and oxygen generates ...

UNSW researchers have developed an intrinsic-adjusted single-diode model that explicitly accounts for radiative and Auger recombination, improving I–V curve accuracy and reducing root mean square ...

Perovskite solar cells operated for months in low Earth orbit and tolerated radiation equivalent to decades in space, marking the most comprehensive orbital test of the technology.

Talon PV, the solar cell manufacturer building a facility outside Houston, has signed a supply agreement with NexWafe, a German silicon wafer company.

Panasonic has launched a new home fuel cell system for detached houses, designed to boost solar self-consumption through HEMS‑based smart scheduling. The unit generates electricity and heat from gas, ...

India's solar manufacturing sector faces a "structural glut" after a 13-fold capacity increase since 2020, now exceeding domestic demand. This surge has led to reduced capacity utilization at ...

Scientists in Hungary found that ground-mounted solar modules at an intermediate elevation of 1.1 metres achieve the highest ...

A cluster of recent laboratory advances in ultra-thin solar cells suggests that lightweight, flexible photovoltaic devices may be able to move beyond niche prototypes if researchers can solve ...
