City, University of London: Following the launch of the London Space Innovation Centre (LSIC), City’s Robotics and Machine Intelligence Society (RMIS) will be reaching for the stars, as it prepares to host…
Physics World: One billion people could access safe drinking water using devices that use solar energy to condense water from the air. That is the conclusion of a team of…
IEEE Spectrum: Global solar energy supplies are growing rapidly, with nearly 10 times as much solar capacity installed today as there was a decade ago. Leading the boom is the photovoltaic (PV) panel, which converts sunlight into electricity using semiconductors. But even as the glossy rectangles become increasingly cheaper and…
Yale Environment 360: For too long, the climate solutions conversation has been dominated by the supply-side view of the energy system: What will replace coal plants? Will natural gas be a bridge fuel? Can hydrogen power industry? These are all important questions,…
Materials Today: Researchers at the University of California (UC) Santa Barbara and eight other institutions have identified a key mechanism responsible for the lower efficiencies of organic solar cells and have demonstrated a way this hurdle might be overcome. Their results,…
