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 ...

Ubiquitous Energy and Michigan State University researchers have created a fully transparent solar concentrator, which could turn any window or sheet of glass (like your smartphone's screen) into ...

South Korean scientists have transformed an opaque crystalline silicon solar cell into a transparent one by punching holes into it measuring around 100 μm in diameter. A neutral-colored ...

Semi-transparent organic solar cell for window applications Developed by U.S. scientists, the 10%-efficient device is intended for applications in solar windows and promises efficiencies close to 15%.

A team of researchers from George Washington University has devised a new layered solar panel that can absorb light from a wider range of the spectrum pushing the efficiency as high as 44.5 percent.

What if solar cells worked at night? That’s no joke, according to Jeremy Munday, professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at UC Davis. In fact, a specially designed ...

Scientists have developed a solar cell that's more efficient than any other currently on the market by using innovative technology capable of capturing more parts of the solar spectrum.

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

While standard solar panels can provide electricity during the day, this device can be a "continuous renewable power source" during the day and at night.

Scientists have created transparent solar cells that can be embedded in glass to charge smartphones, power cars, and buildings using sunlight.

UCLA researchers have developed a new transparent solar cell that is an advance toward giving windows in homes and other buildings the ability to generate electricity while still allowing people ...
