Developed by Tsutomu Miyasaka in 2009, perovskite solar cells emerged as a breakthrough in photovoltaics and a promising alternative to traditional solar technologies. The world’s most advanced labs ...

Imagine two homes on the same street, with the same-sized roofs, both fitted with solar panels. Yet one home consistently generates more electricity than the other. The difference comes down to solar ...

The race to build the world’s most efficient solar cell is no longer a theoretical contest inside physics labs, it is a high‑stakes engineering sprint that will shape how quickly the global energy ...

The use of solar cells, devices that can convert sunlight into electricity, has grown exponentially over the past decades.

Perovskite solar cells are a high-efficiency, low-cost alternative to traditional silicon-based solar panels. With the perovskite solar cell industry expected to reach $1.2 billion by 2033, there’s ...

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 ...

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

Imagine two homes on the same street, with the same-sized roofs, both fitted with solar panels. Yet one home consistently generates more electricity than the other. The difference comes down to solar ...

Flexible solar panels are quickly gaining popularity among homeowners and vanlifers looking for a lightweight, portable way to harness renewable energy. Unlike traditional roof-mounted systems, these ...

Look closely at a solar panel, and you'll see a series of thin metallic lines running across the surface. They're not there to look nice — they have a specific purpose. Those lines are called the grid ...

Solar cell and solar wafer exports from China increased significantly during the first half of the year, according to analysis by London-based think tank Ember Energy. Figures from the company’s ...
