Scientists gain an atom-level view into Perovskite cell efficiency
Using Department of Energy laboratories, scientists learned at the atomic level that a liquid-like motion in perovskites may explain how they efficiently produce electric currents. A team of scientists studied the inner workings of a perovskite material to better...Transparent Solar Panels
Imagine a world where we could generate electricity using the surface of our windows, smartphones, our car’s sun roof or the glass roof of our office building. What sounds like a far-away dream, is on its way to become reality thanks to transparent solar...Transparent solar cells don’t steal light from greenhouse crops
Advances in transparent solar cells mean that soon we might be able to install them into windows and greenhouses. But in the latter case, would they deprive plants of vital sunlight? To find out, researchers at North Carolina State University grew lettuce under...Assessing smart buildings in the digital era
By Marta Soncodi, Telecommunications Industry Association and Thomas Blewitt, UL In the past, most smart or intelligent buildings were designed and built primarily for sustainability, energy efficiency and health, acquiring recognition via programs that focused...
