Rooftop solar has taken another significant bite out of electricity demand, and the customer volumes of leading utility Origin Energy, as the pace of change in Australia’s main grid continues to accelerate. Rooftop solar on Friday trumped all fossil fuels, contributing to 34 per cent of total generation in the middle of the day – […]
High-performance photodetectors with great detection capability have been widely deployed in our daily life, such as driverless technology, intraoperative navigated surgery, face recognition, anti-counterfeiting, and so on. However, we still face challenges as new demands are required for additional functions like excellent flexibility with no sensitivity/stability loss. Therefore, novel photosensitive materials or multi-functional composites […]
Recently, Junyou Yang and Yubo Luo from the Huazhong University of Science and Technology, in collaboration with Xin Li from the National University of Singapore, published an article titled “Enhancing the stability of planar perovskite solar cells by green and inexpensive cellulose acetate butyrate” in Journal of Energy Chemistry. Hybrid organic-inorganic halide […]
Keppel Infrastructure, through its applied technology innovation arm, KepInfra Energy Transition Centre (KETC), National University of Singapore, through its Solar Energy Research Institute of Singapore (SERIS), and Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore), through its Energy Research Institute @ NTU ([email protected]) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for a joint-study on the technological […]
A new type of material for one of the solar cells was proposed by specialists of the Ural Federal University (UrFU) and the Institute of Organic Synthesis of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences together with their colleagues. The compounds found will significantly reduce the cost of solar cell production. The […]
Tandem solar cells made of perovskite and silicon enable significantly higher efficiencies than silicon solar cells alone. Tandem cells from HZB have already achieved several world records. Most recently, in November 2021, HZB research teams achieved a certified efficiency of 29.8 % with a tandem cell made of perovskite and silicon. This […]
