One of the hindrances to large-scale solar adoption, especially in cities, is where to install the chunky panels. Rooftops?

Higher-efficiency solar cells can generate more electricity from the same amount of sunlight.

A team of scientists in China has developed a targeted passivation technique that significantly ...

Discover how scientists created ultra-thin solar cells that blend into glass, transforming skyscrapers into silent power ...

Laboratory testing has revealed that some negatively-doped, “n-type” tunnel oxide passivated contact (TOPCon) and heterojunction (HJT) solar modules are susceptible to ultraviolet (UV) light-related ...

The research advanced the durability of perovskite solar cells without compromising their exceptional efficiency, moving closer to a practical, low-cost alternative to silicon-based photovoltaics.

According to Qcells, notice letters recipients are infringing on its laser-enhanced contact optimisation (LECO) technology. Image: QCells. Korean-owned solar manufacturer Hanwha Qcells has issued ...

Perovskite solar cells shouldn’t work as well as they do—but they do. Scientists have now discovered that defects inside the material actually help, creating networks that separate and guide electric ...
