Since 2009, the maximum efficiency of perovskite solar cells has risen from 3.9% to 30.1%—it took 37 years for crystalline silicon solar cells to achieve comparable efficiencies.

With the growth of portable power stations as solar generators in the last decade, interest and competition has led to huge improvements in solar panel performance. When I began playing around ...

Solar arrays can be around 20 percent more expensive to install on water than land, largely because of the added cost of buoys that keep the panels afloat, according to a 2021 NREL report.

As Minnesota solar companies were gaining momentum, the congressional budget bill will likely include a provision to sunset tax credits for solar projects. The companies say it could wipe out ...

Sheep are being used to help maintain a solar farm 02:24. Hundreds of sheep are hard at work this spring in central Minnesota — not on a farm, but beneath solar panels.

Forward-looking: Recent tests have proven that beaming solar energy to Earth from low-orbiting satellites is theoretically possible with existing technology. If implemented, the method could ...

The research group led by Professor Martin Green has published Version 66 of the solar cell efficiency tables. There are 17 new results reported in the new version.

Recent solar flares, originating from sunspot AR4087, have triggered widespread radio blackouts and raised concerns about Earth's vulnerability to space weather. A FEMA-led drill simulating a ...

Solar power also passed a key milestone in 2025, although it requires digging through the statistics to realize it. In terms of power on the grid, there was less solar than hydro.

Fox 8 reached out to Rose’s co-op -- Cooperative Energy -- to ask if it’s been in touch with Tren Solar, but haven’t gotten a response. Meanwhile, Rose’s new $38,000 system remains ...

The most powerful eruption of 2025 so far was observed last week, and caused a 10-minute period of 'degraded communications' for high-frequency radio systems in the Middle East.
