SOLAR CELL PASTE JOINING LAYERS Updated On Mon, Sep 25th, 2017 by Saurenergy As a result of the sun rush in US and China the amount of solar power added world-wide soared by some 50% last year. The New solar PV capacity installed in 2016 reached more than 76GW which is a dramatic increase on the 50GW installed the year before. According to data compiled by Europe’s solar […] Read more
Next-gen solar cells could be improved by atomic-scale redesign Updated On Fri, Sep 15th, 2017 by Saurenergy Solar cells harness energy from the Sun and provide an alternative to non-renewable energy sources like fossil fuels. However, they face challenges from costly manufacturing processes and poor efficiency — the amount of sunlight converted to useable energy. Light-absorbing materials called organic lead halide perovskites are used in a new type of solar cells that […] Read more
Insect Eyes Inspire New Solar Cell Design by Stanford Researchers Updated On Tue, Sep 5th, 2017 by Saurenergy Packing tiny solar cells together, like micro-lenses in the compound eye of an insect, could pave the way to a new generation of advanced photovoltaics based on a promising material called perovskite. A new solar cell inspired by the compound eyes of insects could help scientists overcome a major roadblock to the development of solar […] Read more
SolarWorld: Agency Report Highlights Imports’ Serious Injury to Domestic Manufacturing Industry Updated On Thu, Aug 10th, 2017 by Saurenergy According to SolarWorld, the report findings paint a picture of domestic producers suffering serious financial distress even as U.S. demand robustly grew, as a result of the massive influx in solar imports from various global producers. Nearly 30 U.S. crystalline-silicon solar technology manufacturing sites have closed down since 2012, a period in which imports of […] Read more
