Researchers from Aalto University in Finland demonstrated a proof-of-concept of laser-processed glass to be used as a type of solar concentrator for building integrated PV (BIPV) applications. The ...

Researchers from University of Genoa and University of Rome Tor Vergata are taking on two well-known metal halide perovskite (MHP) solar PV challenges, reducing the amount of lead while maintaining a ...

Since its invention in the 1970s, the luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) has aimed to enhance solar energy capture by using luminescent materials to convert and concentrate sunlight onto ...

New experiments by swiss researchers have show that industrial-relevant temperatures of 1,050°C can be generated from solar concentrators. Solar power for industrial heat would be able to decarbonize ...

Researchers have reported rapid efficiency gains in perovskite/silicon tandem solar cells, including designs that pair ...

Researchers in China have created a transparent, colorless, and unidirectional solar concentrator that can be directly coated onto standard window glass and used to harvest sunlight without changing ...

The previous solar efficiency record has now been broken, and this one could have ...

Solar-pumped laser technology harnesses concentrated solar radiation to excite laser-active media, converting direct sunlight into a coherent beam. This approach offers a renewable and environmentally ...

Researchers created transparent solar windows that capture sunlight at the edges, cutting PV cell needs while keeping buildings visually unchanged. The device, called a cholesteric unidirectional ...
