Solar energy plays a big role in the fight against climate change. As the world turns to solar power, concerns about the ...

The background shows: Solar cells are run through the second stage of the stringer machine process, in which wire ribbons are attached onto the cells.

As the global demand for clean and sustainable energy continues to surge, the photovoltaic sector remains at the forefront of ...

A solar cell (or a "photovoltaic" cell) is a device that converts photons from the sun (solar light) into electricity. In general, a solar cell that includes both solar and nonsolar sources of ...

That would mean this cell is more efficient than the best residential solar panel on the market. But if you're shopping for solar panels for your home, you probably shouldn't be concerned about it.

Additionally, a team at MIT is exploring transparent solar cell technology using organic materials that absorb infrared and ultraviolet light while allowing visible light to pass through.

A new breakthrough from engineers at Rice University could transform the solar industry and challenge the dominance of silicon solar cells ...

Exploring a new breakthrough in transparent solar cells. Innovations in solar panel technology include perovskite solar cells, solar tiles, and organic panels. This video examines the potential of ...

Solar panels are mostly made of silicon, which derives from sand. Here's how that abundant substance is transformed into something that generates electricity.

Canadian solar panel maker Heliene and India's solar cell maker Premier Energies are joining forces to build a US solar cell factory.

Solar farms and agriculture are competing for land. UCLA Scientists have now tested a way to combine the two by placing semi-transparent solar cells on the glass roofs of greenhouses, finding that ...
