Rising global energy demands are pushing the limits of solar technology. Scientists in Sweden have now taken a major step toward unlocking the potential of halide perovskites. Global demand for ...

Zacharie Jehl Li-Kao, a researcher in the Department of Electronic Engineering at the Polytechnic University of Catalonia (UPC), has developed Soley, an open-access simulation software designed to ...

To keep a solar-powered HAPS flying continuously, its power generation must exceed its consumption. While predicting the power consumption of the motors is straightforward, predicting the power ...

Canadian solar simulator developer G2V Optics and Sinton Instruments, a US-based PV characterization specialist, have created a solar simulator for solar cells and modules. The new instrument supports ...

High flux solar simulators serve as indispensable tools in replicating the intensity, spectral distribution and angular characteristics of natural sunlight within controlled laboratory settings. Their ...

A team in Sweden has unraveled the hidden structure of a promising solar material using machine learning and advanced ...

Spirals of solar wind can spin off larger solar eruptions and disrupt Earth's magnetic field, yet they are too difficult to ...

A University of Sydney-led team has set a record for solar technology, creating the largest and most efficient ...

As low Earth orbit becomes more cluttered, it becomes increasingly necessary to use middle Earth orbits, and radiation-tolerant cell designs will be needed. Making photovoltaics thinner should ...

Some people like to say outer space is a starry frontier of vast emptiness, but clearly they’ve never tried launching a satellite. Sixty-five years after Sputnik, some 8,000 low-Earth orbit (LEO) ...
