A research team from the City University of Hong Kong has developed an integrated PV-powered battery (PVB) for portable electronics that can purportedly achieve stable photo-charging/discharging cyclability. The scientists said that, in the design of the new device,… All-perovskite PV-powered battery for portable electronics
French uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) manufacturer Objectif Drone has developed a drone-based solar panel spray cleaning system for professional solar plant maintenance teams. Suitable for rooftop and ground-mounted PV systems, the Chronos model can reach… Solar panel cleaning drones for rooftop, ground-mounted PV systems
Dutch solar module company Euronergy has released a new series of lightweight PV panels. Named Dandelion, the new products are available with a power output ranging from 410 W to 430 W. “The Dandelion lightweight… Euronergy launches new lightweight PV module series
A Zhejiang University-based research team has created glass that clears away dust through electric bursts, reported Interesting Engineering. These bursts eliminate 98% of surface particles, with no water or chemical use required. The technology places see-through electrodes inside… Scientists develop unbelievable glass that cleans itself with electric bursts — here’s how it could be put to use
Earlier this month, the United States imposed an additional 25 percent tariff on Indian goods, raising duties on some exports to as high as 50 percent—among the highest levied on any US trading partner. As… US tariffs on India: A rare opportunity Bangladesh cannot miss
Chinese PV perovskite specialist Renshine Solar has achieved 27.5% power conversion efficiency for a flexible all-perovskite solar cell. The company said the result is a world record for this cell typology. It was reached with… Renshine Solar hits 27.5% efficiency for flexible all-perovskite solar cell
Seeing the Solar Ark for the first time, it may not occur to you what the object is. Set among the Japanese countryside, the enormous construct resembles as though it were a futuristic craft that… Meet the Solar Ark ― 5,000 panels and 530,000 kWh oriented to the sky in Japan
Red onion dye could be the missing ingredient required to bolster ultraviolet (UV) protection for solar cells, scientists say. Solar cells are typically coated with a petroleum-based film to protect them from UV-induced degradation. These… Scientists turned to a red onion to improve solar cells — and it could make solar power more sustainable
When we think of great engineering milestones, we usually think of skyscrapers, gigantic bridges, or iconic symbols like the Statue of Liberty. But now, a new protagonist is stealing the show, and it’s not a… Twice the height of Status of Liberty — China unveils the tallest wind turbine on Earth
A research team led by scientists from India has developed a novel “smart” electric vehicle (EV) system that uses PV panels, a proton-exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell, battery storage, and a supercapacitor. At the core… Novel MPPT technique for EV charging combined with PV, fuel cells
