Developed by Tsutomu Miyasaka in 2009, perovskite solar cells emerged as a breakthrough in photovoltaics and a promising alternative to traditional solar technologies. The world’s most advanced labs ...

A new generation of 3D-printed solar cells could let buildings generate power through colorful, semi-transparent windows ...

A new study highlights a semi-transparent, color-tunable solar cell designed to work in places traditional panels can't, like windows and flexible surfaces. Using a 3D-printed pillar structure, the ...

Flexible solar panels are quickly gaining popularity among homeowners and vanlifers looking for a lightweight, portable way to harness renewable energy. Unlike traditional roof-mounted systems, these ...

Crystalline-silicon solar panels are efficient, reliable, and dominate the solar-panel market. However, new third-gen solar technology could do what c-Si solar panels cannot, including flexible, ...

Imagine two homes on the same street, with the same-sized roofs, both fitted with solar panels. Yet one home consistently generates more electricity than the other. The difference comes down to solar ...

Solar panels are becoming an increasingly familiar sight across Acadiana, but researchers are testing whether crops and clean ...

Much of the recent news about tariffs revolves around President-elect Donald Trump’s plans to hike across-the-board duties on products imported from China, Canada, Mexico and other countries. But Joe ...

Look closely at a solar panel, and you'll see a series of thin metallic lines running across the surface. They're not there to look nice — they have a specific purpose. Those lines are called the grid ...
