Solar panels are an increasingly efficient, cost-effective, and higher-power-density renewable-energy source, though most ...

While generating green energy, solar panels usually create excess heat that goes unused. But with a new, innovative design, scientists have found a way to harness those precious leftovers to give the ...

Flat solar panels could be left behind. HelioSkin is a new flexibile technolgy that turns the walls of buildings in the city ...

Researchers say the breakthrough could lead to the production of thinner, lighter and more flexible solar panels that could be used to power more homes and be used in a wider range of products.

Florida Solar Design Group specializes in residential solar panel design, installation and repair as well as solar pool heating. It also offers battery charging and backup. Its service area includes ...

If you’re building a new home, it makes sense to do it in a way that employs free, renewable energy when it’s available. Most home designs don’t prioritize using energy they receive from the sun, but ...

Unique usage of power with solar photovoltaics. Power efficiency assisted via photovoltaics. Designers may not be fully aware of a very powerful technique that can extract maximum power from solar ...

Addressing key design and manufacturing concerns of solar panel makers producing next-generation PV modules, Diodes Inc has housed its latest 12A-rated SBR12U45LH SBR (Super Barrier Rectifier) in a ...

The energy-generating potential of solar panels — and a key limitation on their use — is a result of what they’re made of. Panels made of silicon are declining in price such that in some locations ...

After finding a study that said the unattractiveness of solar panels remains a barrier for many homeowners who might otherwise adopt the technology, Winsor realized he could use his artistic skills to ...

An American exchange student's interest in origami has inspired a lightweight, foldable solar panel design modeled after the Japanese paper art. Brian Trease, a mechanical engineer at NASA's Jet ...

Designing solar panels in checkerboard lines increases their ability to absorb light by 125 per cent, a new study says. Researchers say the breakthrough could lead to the production of thinner, ...
