The assumption may be that solar panels won't be as effective in the winter due to the decrease in sunlight and the snow that lands atop them. Also, let's be honest, most technology isn't known for ...

A new study highlights a semi-transparent, color-tunable solar cell designed to work in places traditional panels can't, like windows and flexible surfaces. Using a 3D-printed pillar structure, the ...

Scientists have found that a compound extracted from camphor trees can make solar panels work better and last longer, achieving over 25% efficiency, according to the Ulsan National Institute of ...

Scientists in Germany have engineered a major leap forward in solar panel design by devising plans for ultra-thin solar panels that are up to 1,000 times more efficient than conventional silicon ...

When the clocks go back and the days close in, it’s natural to wonder whether solar panels can still pull their weight. The UK’s short daylight hours and famously grey skies fuel a common ...

Traditional solar fails in the windswept north. Two Swedish inventors are betting on aerodynamic resilience to solve the ...

If rising energy bills have left you frustrated, you’re far from alone. Many UK households are now considering alternatives to the grid, and a solar panels setup has become a top option. As ...
