Bifacial solar cells can be encapsulated in modules with either a glass/glass or a glass/ transparent backsheet structure. A glass/backsheet structure works well with conventional PERC modules due to ...

A group of researchers at the Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China has developed a new floating structure for offshore floating PV that reportedly offers a series of advantages compared to ...

Researchers reveal the thermal instability that happens within the cells' interface layers, but also offers a path forward towards reliability and efficiency for halide perovskite solar technology. A ...

Silicon solar cells are an established technology for the generation of electricity from the sun. But they take a lot of energy to produce, are rigid and can be fragile. However, a new class of solar ...
