New experiments by swiss researchers have show that industrial-relevant temperatures of 1,050°C can be generated from solar concentrators. Solar power for industrial heat would be able to decarbonize ...
Since its invention in the 1970s, the luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) has aimed to enhance solar energy capture by using luminescent materials to convert and concentrate sunlight onto ...
Researchers at the University of Twente in the Netherlands have investigated how free-space luminescent solar concentrators (FSLSCs) could be used to enhance bifacial PV module performance in vertical ...
A recent study published in Advanced Optical Materials explored the potential of a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) ...
Researchers from Aalto University in Finland demonstrated a proof-of-concept of laser-processed glass to be used as a type of solar concentrator for building integrated PV (BIPV) applications. The ...
IBM Research and Switzerland-based Airlight Energy today announced a new parabolic dish that increases the sun’s radiation by 2,000 times while also producing fresh water and air conditioning. The new ...
