Australia's Gridcog has revealed that solar fences – effectively, bifacial panels oriented east and west at 90-degree tilt angles – demonstrate promising yield and revenue potential, based on ...

New research from IBM and NASA has used AI to power a new and improved simulation of the Sun's activity, allowing marked improvements in the prediction of solar activity. The project, called Surya, is ...

A team of Sweden-based researchers has developed a snow loss model to estimate snow-induced PV power losses on an hourly basis. The proposed approach relies solely on data from remote sensing sources, ...

Analysts interested in measuring the degradation of molecules due to photodegradation should consider using a photochemical reactor. There are two photochemical reactors in the engineering ...

If you stop to think about it, it’s a marvel that we can harness energy from the sun. But we do, thanks to solar panels equipped with photovoltaic cells that convert sunlight to electricity. That’s no ...

Photovoltaic solar arrays are attracting a great deal of attention as a viable alternative energy source. Unless an array is used to charge a battery, the DC power usually is converted to AC to be ...

Summer is here, and if you have been planning to spend more time outdoors, a portable solar panel can be a great investment. These can keep your power stations charged wherever the sun shines, but not ...
