The sharp decline in solar energy prices, that has broadly been welcomed as helping to bring affordable and sustainable power to local communities in emerging…
Trina Solar Limited has supplied 17 megawatts of PV modules to the largest floating PV plant in Europe.
Spain-based Repsol said Wednesday in its January-September report that it increased its worldwide production of oil and gas by 4 percent, using the windfall from higher crude oil prices to expand renewables and slash debt.
Moss evolved after algae but before vascular land plants, such as ferns and trees, making them an interesting target for scientists studying photosynthesis, the process by which plants convert sunlight to fuel.
University of Adelaide economists have modelled the transition from a world powered by fossil fuels to one in which sustainable sources supply all our energy needs.
Several additional test flights of the "StratoAirNet" solar electric technology demonstrator prototype for Bye Aerospace's family of medium-altitude aircraft systems took place Oct.
Parker Solar Probe now holds the record for closest approach to the Sun by a human-made object.
In the quest for abundant, renewable alternatives to fossil fuels, scientists have sought to harvest the sun's energy through "water splitting," an artificial photosynthesis technique that uses sunlight to generate hydrogen fuel from water.
University of Colorado Boulder and University of Wyoming engineers have successfully scaled up an innovative water-cooling system capable of providing continuous day-and-night radiative cooling for structures.
Solar cells are a cost-effective, alternate source of energy. A subtype of these, organic solar cells make use of organic polymers inside the cell.
The equatorial sun has been up for about an hour as a gaggle of children set off from the Ivorian village of Allepilla on their hour-long trek to school.
On Sept. 25, 2018, Parker Solar Probe captured a view of Earth as it sped toward the first Venus gravity assist of the mission.
About 99 percent of the Sun's energy emitted as neutrinos is produced through nuclear reaction sequences initiated by proton-proton (pp) fusion in which…
The move by China in May this year to slash subsidies for domestic utility-scale solar projects will ultimately benefit developers in the US who rely on imported solar panels to revive projects and jobs, says GlobalData, leading data and analytics company.
Findings recently published by a Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) space scientist shed new light on predicting the thermodynamics of solar flares and other "space weather" events involving hot, fast-moving plasmas.
An already burgeoning solar power industry faces another significant boost thanks to one widely used and long-valued material-graphite.
