Pratt & Whitney Canada (P&WC) has chosen Switzerland’s H55 to supply battery systems for the engine company’s regional hybrid-electric flight demonstrator program, P&WC said Thursday. The development of the battery component designs and associated electrical control systems will also draw support from the National Research Council Canada (NRC) and the province of Quebec’s Innovative Vehicle […]
How do we produce solar energy? Solar energy works by converting the sun’s energy into energy. There are two forms of energy generated by the sun for our use: electricity and heat. Both are generated through the use of solar panels, which range in size from residential rooftops to “solar farms” that span acres of […]
Australian researchers have made a breakthrough in renewable energy technology, proving that solar energy can be generated at night. OPEC SG: Sanctions against oil countries affect the world economy The research, published in ACS Photonics and unveiled to the public on Tuesday, was conducted by a team of researchers from the Australian University of New […]
How much solar energy is produced each year? 5 hours x 290 watts (eg premium solar panel wattage) = 1,450 watts-hours, or approximately 1.5 kilowatt-hours (kwh). As a result, each solar space would generate about 500-550 kWh of energy each year. How much solar energy do we produce? The output of the solar panel and […]

As climate change continues to present itself as the most pressing threat facing our planet, researchers push to find efficient and clean alternatives to fossil fuels. Foremost among this research is harnessing free energy from the sun. Doing this efficiently requires advanced knowledge of the qualities of materials used in the construction of solar […]
