Trackers

Europe is expected to show a decline in demand for solar trackers. China, the U.S., India and Japan are expected to be the major driving forces for generating the demand for solar trackers. Going beyond the local market is the current trend in the industry and hence, the market is becoming truly global. Solar trackers […]

Blockchain – from Nowhere to Everywhere

One day, the energy grid could look completely different than it does today. Instead of big power plants sending electrons over long distances to people’s homes, we might generate more power locally using solar panels, and homeowners might become makers and traders of power as well as passive consumers. If so, blockchain technology could help […]

Perovskites – A Research to Reality

Most of the solar panels commercially deployed are made from the silicon cells. But research into other materials and strategies is underway in laboratories around the world. Some of the most promising recent research for silicon alternatives has involved materials called perovskites. The word “perovskite” is also used for synthetic compounds that have the same […]

Deep-UV probing method detects electron transfer in photovoltaics

Sensitized solar cells consisting of a molecular or solid-state sensitizer that serves to collect light and inject an electron into a substrate that favors their migration are among the most studied photovoltaic systems at present. Despite its importance in determining the potential of a photovoltaic device, current methods for monitoring the interfacial electron transfer remain […]

Renewable Equipment Prices Expected to Fall Further: R K Singh

The per capita consumption of energy is about one 6th of Europe and one 12th of USA. Energy consumption is not going to double or triple but it will be over four times. That is how the rate of growth of energy consumption will be in India. Exuding confidence that energy consumption will rise over […]
