For years, solar power at home was mostly limited to people who own their rooftops and could afford the steep upfront costs. But a new generation of small, affordable systems are making clean energy more accessible. The technology, often called "plug-in" solar, is already widespread in Germany and gaining momentum in the United States. KQED's Laura Klivans reports. | PBS NewsHour

Solar Wind Effects on Earth
Stanford researchers have developed a revolutionary type of solar panel that can generate electricity at night by capturing the Earth’s natural radiated heat. Instead of relying on sunlight, these panels use a thermoelectric generator that taps into the temperature difference between the cooling night sky and the warm ground — unlocking clean energy 24/7. Important Details: • Works by harnessing radiative cooling, where Earth releases heat into outer space • A built-in thermoelectric device conv
