Solar panel material research proves that there is a huge potential in new solar panel technology, which can generate electricity and hydrogen at a time. This will enhance effective energy efficiency of the panel by producing additional energy in an environmentally-friendly way. It’s also believed that hydrogen will be the clean energy source of the future. (more…)
Now make a solar panel by any semiconductor. The researchers at Berkeley Lab have developed a new technology, which allows manufacture of low-cost, high-efficiency solar cells using any semiconductor material. (more…)
After the introduction of solar panel rooftops, which are easier to put together and cheaper to install, investing in solar panels are believed to increase. Why not – check out what are these products: (more…)
Pluto Cell (Left) vs. Standard Cell (Right)
After an official announcement by the world’s largest producer of solar panels, Suntech Power Holdings is ready to introduce the Pluto cell technology that works on utilising standard commercial grade p-type silicon wafers. As well, it has ability to set world record at 20.3% efficiency. (more…)
Solar panels embedded in electronic devices has been a long drawn tradition without much desired effect. But the new solar energy powered Kindle cover, uncovered at CES 2012 in Las Vegas states otherwise. (more…)
After a complain by seven US solar companies, the US International Trade Commission voted on 2nd December 2011 to investigate Chinese companies, which sell solar products at unduly low prices on the global market. (more…)
U.S. solar company Solyndra LLC. has filed papers declaring bankruptcy despite Obama administration announcing a half billion federal stimulus to the solar panel maker in an aim to decrease dependency on foreign shores. But things seem far from sorted as Solyndra has succumbed to Chinese rivals being the third solar power company in the last month to seek bankruptcy protection. Evergreen Solar Inc. followed by SpectraWatt Inc. were the two precedent companies who have thrown their hands in air in the last two weeks. (more…)
It’s a known fact that having shared coequal views on using clean energy, solar panel and EV consumers are the same people from the higher middle class with an increasing disposable amount of money. Not surprisingly, Ford and SunPower, the largest solar panel maker in Silicon Valley have come together to offer consumers a bundle of rooftop solar panel assembly along with their new buy of Focus Electric.
