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. ScienceDaily: Solar Energy News
Solar power is produced by collecting sunlight and converting it into electricity. This is done by using solar panels, which are large flat panels made up of many individual solar cells. It is most often used in remote locations, although it is becoming more popular in urban areas as well. This page contains articles that [...]
Bill gates , who is a well known figure in Technology industry has a big idea about how to save the world. This will motivates all of us who really look u to him as a public figure in modern industry. The issue talked here is not a simple issue. As Gates also aknowledge people [...]
Photovoltaic solar power films is goin to be new generation using organic thin film solar. This solar energy technologhy is developed by Konarka, a company in Massachusetts. This procedure can cut. This is a remarkable finding that can help us in supporting towards home made power sources and start to rely on our self of [...]
Some laboratories have achieved impressive efficiencies under concentrated sunlight. SunPower Corp. is much closer to the market. The California-based company recently produced a record-setting 24.2 percent efficiency large area silicon wafer in its Philippine factory. Heat loss from available silicon solar cells reduces the maximum efficiency to around 30 percent. Professor Xiaoyang Zhu at the [...]
There’s a news today on “Solar hot water systems catching on” i read on site mysanantonio. The first thing in mind that people usually did when they came across the word solar is roof thing with big plate shining glass. And then, this thing turns light on. Often overlooked is an older, simpler solar technology [...]
Environment are getting it all back as the bad news about solar is also a topic to concern. In china, they discover that the Solar Panel manufacturer dumb toxic waste in nearby village, and the grass and tree would not grow. Having said that, production of polysilicon for panels gives off a highly toxic byproduct [...]
Solar panels give off no pollution, that’s right. I really hates polluting earth because i love earth. The only pollution produced as a result of solar panels is the manufacturing of these devices in factories, transportation of the goods, and installation. Besides The production of energy from the use of fossil and some renewable fuels [...]
Renewable Energy and Data Centers
As organizations like Greenpeace pressure Internet companies to use more energy from renewable sources, data center operators are struggling with the best approach to renewable power. To get some perspective on the issue, we spoke with John Stanley, a researcher at The 451 Group who specializes in “Eco-Efficient IT” and the intersection between data centers [...]
Switching on India’s solar future
India is confronted with the triple challenges of climate change, energy security and economic development with political will and technological prowess. But will that be enough to bring in the capital it needs to ensure a transition to green growth? India already has a head start in the race for renewables, ranking fifth in the [...]
Melaka invested RM3.2 million in a solar energy plant.
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 [...]
