A new “energy-multiplying” solar breakthrough could push efficiency beyond 100% and transform how we capture sunlight.

A new solar breakthrough may overcome a long-standing efficiency barrier. Researchers used a “spin-flip” metal complex to capture and multiply energy from sunlight through singlet fission. The result ...

Scientists discover a new way to capture more energy from sunlight. This could improve solar panels and reduce wasted energy in the future.

pv magazine is compiling a guide to home solar installations, aimed at those who are interested in installing but are new to the market and want to make an informed decision. We have spoken to ...

Plug-in solar panels, small photovoltaic units designed to connect directly to a household outlet, are gaining attention as ...

Lead recycled from centuries-old ammunition provides raw materials for perovskite solar cells. Perovskite solar cells ...

Ever since Benjamin Franklin’s lightning experiment in the 18th century, civilization has been intrigued by the idea of capturing lightning in a bottle. Over time, however, the idea evolved from ...

A new way of making sustainable aviation fuel that could cut the reliance on used cooking oil as a feedstock has been ...

Wind energy infrastructure doesn’t produce power if the air isn’t moving, and solar doesn’t generate power if the sun’s not out. But that doesn’t mean that either source of energy is "worthless" ...

Thermal energy storage is pretty great, as phase-change energy storage is very consistent with its energy output over time, ...
