On June 14 and 16, technicians installed solar panels onto NASA's Nancy Grace Roman Space Telescope, one of the final steps ...

To sustainably power our digital future, the world needs more — and more efficient — sources of renewable energy. Michigan Tech researchers are pioneering one such breakthrough in solar energy: highly ...

Since 2009, the maximum efficiency of perovskite solar cells has risen from 3.9% to 30.1% —it took 37 years for crystalline silicon solar cells to achieve comparable efficiencies.

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 ...

SEG Solar, a US-based PV module manufacturer, has commissioned a solar cell factory in Indonesia and produced its first n-type cell at the facility. May 12, 2025 David Carroll Manufacturing Markets ...

A revolutionary water-based method for recycling solar panels To address this issue, a team of scientists led by Dr. Fengqi You and Dr. Feng Gao has introduced a new protocol for recycling solar ...

Instead of hauling solar cells from Earth, Lang’s team is looking to materials available on the Moon itself. They aim to replace Earth-made glass with glass crafted from lunar regolith—the ...

They then deposited an ultrathin layer of a material called halide perovskite —which has emerged as a cheap and powerful alternative to silicon in solar cells—onto the moonglass. This material would ...

Northwestern University scientists have developed a new protective coating that significantly extends the life of perovskite solar cells, making them more practical for applications outside the lab.

The new factory will produce an annual aggregate capacity of 1 GW N-Type cells to supply both Heliene’s and Premier’s US solar cell needs. Cells produced at the new site and incorporated into ...

In a proof-of-concept test of the technology, the scientists mounted a ring-shaped array of 24 of the cells on a commercially available CX10 miniature quadcopter, which was dubbed the Solar Hopper.
