The idea of sending solar energy down to Earth from satellites seemed like a promising system when it first appeared 15 years ago, but the science behind space solar is sound, and a team of Caltech researchers is ready. that they should prove it. Earlier this week they started a test flight in space and […]
UPDATE: The Transporter-6 mission successfully launched at 6:55 a.m. PT on January 3. In January 2023, the Caltech Space Solar Power Project (SSPP) plans to launch a prototype, dubbed the Space Solar Power Demonstrator (SSPD), which will test several key components of a large-scale solar-harvesting program. sun in the sky and wood. energy back to […]
While you may be just starting to reap the advantages of 5G wireless technology, researchers throughout the world are already working hard on the future: 6G. One of the most promising breakthroughs in 6G telecommunications is the possibility of Visible Light Communication (VLC), which is like a wireless version of fiberoptics, using flashes of […]
A device that can harvest water from the air and provide hydrogen fuel-entirely powered by solar energy-has been a dream for researchers for decades. Now, EPFL chemical engineer Kevin Sivula and his team have made a significant step towards bringing this vision closer to reality. They have developed an ingenious yet simple […]
What region of the US is the best for solar and why? Florida. Unsurprisingly, the Sunshine State is a great place to go solar. Not only does our home star shine brightly here, but the average annual temperature is 72 degrees. It’s a perfect recipe in a way. Which region of the US has the […]
“For the perovskite film, there are some factors influencing the intrinsic material stability,” said paper author Qi Chen, professor from Beijing Key Laboratory of Construction Tailorable Advanced Functional Materials and Green Applications, MIIT Key Laboratory for Low-Dimensional Quantum Structure and Devices, Experimental Center of Advanced Materials, School of Materials Science and Engineering, Beijing Institute […]
