Their work could provide a key piece to help solve a puzzle which solar astronomers have been aiming to solve for decades - what is the origin of magnetic twist in the solar atmosphere?
Technology using a new generation of hybrid solar cells is one step closer to mass-production, thanks to Newcastle University-led research.
By mimicking photosynthesis, the light-driven process that plants use to produce sugars, MIT researchers have designed a new type of photocatalyst that can absorb light and use it to drive a variety of chemical reactions.
Small satellite manufacturer and mission services provider Blue Canyon Technologies LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raytheon Technologies Corporation, was…
Spanish billionaire Amancio Ortega, the founder of the Zara clothing brand, has entered the renewable energy sector with the purchase of a stake in a wind farm run by energy giant Repsol.
Global drinking water scarcity is a severe problem for humans. Water purification consumes a large amount of fossil energy and generates secondary pollution.
An international research team led by scientists from Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has invented a 'smart' window…
New modelling, on a scale ranging from individual structures through to neighbourhoods and an entire city, has shown that buildings in the City of Melbourne…
Anthropogenic CO2 is the main cause of climate change. There is a pressing need to develop efficient technologies for chemical/fuel production from CO2, ultimately realizing carbon circularity.
While movies show Earth as existing in a calm, pristine corner of the universe, in reality the near-Earth space environment is dangerous and dynamic.
A research group at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) has developed a method for making an ultra-high material efficient solar cell using semiconductor nanowires.
Controlling the morphology of photoactive layers towards nanoscale bi-continuous donor/acceptor interpenetrating networks is a key issue to build…
A research team at the University of Cordoba has designed a sustainable photovoltaic solar device that can heat water up to 80 degrees - just like a regular…
Recently, researchers developed high-performance solar thermal copper sulfide photothermal ink and photothermal film, which marked a big progress in the field of Plasmonic Solar photothermal Materials.
A digital, urbanised world consumes huge amounts of raw materials that could hardly be called environmentally friendly.
In the race against climate change, physicists at The University of Toledo are pushing the limits of solar electricity to ensure a clean energy future.
