What is solar energy? Solar energy is radiation from the sun that can generate heat, cause a chemical reaction, or generate electricity. The total amount of solar energy received on Earth is much greater than the present and projected energy demand in the world. What is a solar power simple definition? Solar energy is the […]
An original approach to mass-producing low-cost solar cell foundation blocks could lead to the wide adoption of solar panels made from perovskite ink – a “miracle material” – according to research from the University of Surrey. In the paper published in Scientific Reports, Dr Ehsan Rezaee, a post-doctoral fellow of the Advanced […]
Carbon dioxide or CO2 can potentially be used as a feedstock to be converted into carbon-neutral ‘solar fuels’ that store energy from the sun. But for them to be competitive with fossil fuels, the chemical reaction that performs this conversion needs much more efficient catalysts. Researchers have recently come up with a photocatalyst structure […]
In terms of energy policy, President Biden has become a master at doing the wrong thing for the wrong reasons. Its policies on the production and imports of solar panels are excellent examples. Everyone agrees that we need to be good caretakers of the planet. This is why it is essential to have correct energy […]
Even with the impressive and continuous advances in solar technologies, the question remains: How can we efficiently collect energy from sunlight coming from varying angles from sunrise to sunset? Solar panels work best when sunlight hits them directly. To capture as much energy as possible, many solar arrays actively rotate towards the […]
Solar energy is the energy given off by the sun’s rays. Plants use sunlight to produce their own food through a process called photosynthesis. Using the sun’s rays, plants turn water and carbon dioxide (what we exhale) into fuel to grow and exhale oxygen in the process. What are the examples of solar cell? List […]
