MIT explains the crux behind the World’s Lightest Solar Cells Updated On Mon, Mar 7th, 2016 by Saurenergy As solar panels get mainstream, innovations into this technology are also on leap. Today, technologies are getting more flexible, thinner and lighter and researchers at MIT are known to have abided the rules and created the thinnest, lightest solar cells ever produced. The MIT professor Vladimir Bulovi, research scientist Annie Wang, and doctoral student Joel […] Read more
Panasonic Corporation achieves photovoltaic module conversion efficiency of 23.8% Updated On Thu, Mar 3rd, 2016 by Saurenergy Panasonic Corporation has announced that it has achieved world’s highest photovoltaic module conversion efficiency of 23.8% (aperture area3: 11,562 cm2) at research level. It is a major increase over the previous world record for crystalline silicon-based photovoltaic modules. Earlier record of the conversion efficiency of a crystalline silicon-based photovoltaic module was 22.8%. Back in 2014 […] Read more
The ‘Misjudge Material’ can be the next Solar Cell Technology Updated On Tue, Mar 1st, 2016 by Saurenergy Researchers are step close to a solar energy innovation which claims to vie traditional energy sources in electricity generation. Currently, silicon solar cells available in the solar cell market making manufacturing costs a bit tight for the manufacturers. But, a team Led by the U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory and Washington State […] Read more
Solar Energy On-Demand Use can be a Marvel Possibility Updated On Tue, Jan 12th, 2016 by Saurenergy Researchers at MIT have come up with a ground breaking new innovation – a unique process for absorbing and retaining solar energy for on-demand use. “It is a material that is capable of absorbing photons (light) and storing their energy,” said MIT professor Dr. David Zhitomirsky. “Then, this energy can be released as heat on-demand, […] Read more
Multi-Directional Solar Cells Can Harvest Sunlight from Various Angles Updated On Mon, Jan 4th, 2016 by Saurenergy Commercial solar panels work best when daylight hits them at a sure point. Recently, specialists had implied that solar panels confront south to gather the most energy from the sun. In another case, a significant 2013 report by Pecan Road prompted that systems leaning westward to boost proficiency. Further investigation has found that deciding the […] Read more
