In a study published in Nature, researchers at Linköping University have developed a method to recycle all parts of a solar cell repeatedly without environmentally hazardous solvents. The recycled ...

An ionic elixir is being developed to extend promising perovskite solar cell lifespans. It's part of research — detailed in ...

Researchers at the Ningbo Institute of Materials Technology and Engineering (NIMTE) at the Chinese Academy of Sciences have found a new way to stick different layers of tandem solar cells and achieved ...

A research team has produced a flexible perovskite-silicon tandem solar cell that converts 33.6% of sunlight into electricity ...

Perovskite solar cells are poised to be the next big photovoltaic technology, after silicon. But they usually don’t last more than a couple of years. They also contain toxic lead, which portends heaps ...

Monocrystalline, polycrystalline or thin-film? Here’s how the main types of solar panel compare on efficiency, lifespan, and the roof space you’ll need.

Researchers at ICMS in Seville have developed a hybrid perovskite solar cell that generates electricity from both sunlight and raindrops, using the photovoltaic and triboelectric effects. A ...

If you rewind the clock fifteen or twenty years, residential solar energy was a tough sell. The systems were incredibly expensive, wildly inefficient, and—let’s be brutally honest—they were usually an ...
