Why the temperatures in the solar wind are almost the same in certain directions, and why different energy densities are practically identical, was until now not clear. With a new approach to calculating instability criteria for plasmas, researchers have solved both problems at once. They were the first to incorporate the effects of collisions of [...]
Engineers are developing a solar panel composed of nano-antennas instead of silicon semiconductors. They say that through the use of these antennas, a much higher conversion rate from light into usable energy can be achieved — and could lead to a more cost-effective way to harvest and utilize “green” energy.

In a step toward engineering ever-smaller electronic devices, scientists have assembled nanoscale pairings of particles that show promise as miniaturized power sources. Composed of light-absorbing, colloidal quantum dots linked to carbon-based fullerene nanoparticles, these tiny two-particle systems can convert light to electricity in a precisely controlled way.

KUALA LUMPUR: Melaka will be declared a “developed state” come Oct 20 by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak. The declaration will be done via “online” from Kuala Lumpur, said Melaka Chief Minister, Datuk Seri Ali Rustam. The quest to get developed status for the state under a 10-year plan known as Melaka Maju [...]
Benefits of Solar Energy: 1. Solar energy is new. Never have problem about loosing out of sunlight or using it all up. Sun is a a power source that constant, meaning it’s always going to be there every day. 2. The energy which is solar energy is environmentally friendly indeed. If we compared to a [...]
Ever tought of Solar energy for cars?Solar energy is one of the many renewable sources of energy that is used for fueling vehicles, running consumer products and for the efficient running of homes and business establishments.The solar Cells will run the equipment. The future vision that we have is to power all cars with solar [...]
How can we do that. How can we achieve such thing? Yes, we can achieve that if we are smart enough to apply certain ways that can reduce the cost. One of the suggestion, is to use thin layer solar cells to get a much more cheaper from green technology. We all agree that solar [...]
Governor of California Schwarzenegger, announced that October will be the National Energy Awereness Month. This year Governor Schwarzenegger look foward for bringing this month as “Solar Energy Month”. In his announced on September 24th, all californians called for immidiate attention towards solar. The Govenment urged them to learn more about how solar power can helps [...]
Lets get to the bottom of solar energy, for some new readers that needs a strong start about solar energy. today i am going to concentrate on explaining the basic of solar energy. First and foremost, the energy that we are going to talk about is coming from one source only, which is the sun. [...]
Advantages of Solar Energy After initial investment, all the electricity you produce is free and incentives and rebates from governments and utility companies offset the initial investment new financing vehicles such as leasing and Pace offset the initial investment while preserving the incentives and rebates. Net metering gives you the opportunity of selling your excess [...]
It’s just a question of finding a big enough area for enough 1% efficient cells to generate the energy we need. Solar electric power modules are continually improving in efficiency, with PV modules once at 4-6% now pushing up into the teens, and some large-scale solar thermal installations going considerably higher. Asking the efficiency question [...]
