Scientists developed greener and cheaper way to make single-crystalline semiconductor films Updated On Fri, Sep 15th, 2017 by Saurenergy Scientists have developed a greener and cheaper way to make single-crystalline semiconductor films, components at the heart of our electric gadgets, including smartphones, computers and solar panels. The fastest integrated circuits feature transistors consisting of germanium films on silicon. However, such materials are typically only prepared at elevated temperatures, with complex machinery that involve haza-rdous […] Read more
Startup Opportunities in Solar pv Updated On Fri, Sep 1st, 2017 by Saurenergy Two key words that I would like to start: “startups” and “Rs.2.44/unit”. These have caught the attention of every educated citizen in the country. The first, for the opportunity of utilizing ones ideas and potential of doing something great; the other being the lowest tariff quoted in this month in solar PV under reverse bidding. […] Read more
Scientists have developed new ‘smart’ sunglasses that can generate electric power Updated On Fri, Aug 4th, 2017 by Saurenergy Scientists have designed new ‘smart’ solar glasses incorporated with coloured, semi-transparent organic solar cells that can generate electric power Scientists have designed new ‘smart’ solar glasses incorporated with coloured, semi-transparent organic solar cells that can generate electric power enough to operate devices such as hearing aids or step counters. Organic solar cells are flexible, transparent, […] Read more
Things to Know Before Installing Solar on Your Roof Updated On Thu, Jul 6th, 2017 by Saurenergy India is one of the few countries which is blessed with abundant solar energy. The country has a tremendous scope for the growth for the solar power. However, factors like lack of proper knowledge about the solar power technology amongst the consumers and penetration of second grade products in the market. Hence, we at Saur […] Read more
This new material removes water pollutants using solar power Updated On Thu, Jun 29th, 2017 by Saurenergy Researchers have developed materials capable of absorbing the visible part of the solar spectrum – other materials, such as titanium dioxide, are also able to break down dyes using solar energy, but their efficiency is limited as they only absorb higher energy, ultra-violet light. Researchers at the Swansea University in the United Kingdom have developed […] Read more
This solar paint can turn water vapor into hydrogen Updated On Thu, Jun 15th, 2017 by Saurenergy The solar paint contains a newly developed compound that acts like silica gel, which is used in sachets to absorb moisture and keep food, medicines and electronics fresh and dry. But unlike silica gel, the new material, synthetic molybdenum-sulphide, also acts as a semi-conductor and catalyses the splitting of water atoms into hydrogen and oxygen. […] Read more
Finnish Demo Plant Uses Carbon Dioxide to Produce Renewable Fuels and Chemicals Updated On Mon, Jun 12th, 2017 by Saurenergy The Finnish demo plant comprises four separate units: a solar power plant; equipment for separating carbon dioxide and water from the air; a section that uses electrolysis to produce hydrogen; and synthesis equipment for producing a crude-oil substitute from carbon dioxide and hydrogen. VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and Lappeenranta University of Technology (LUT) […] Read more
