A team of researchers have analyzed the impact of different cloud types on solar irradiance predictions. They found prediction models that factor in the physics of how clouds interact with sunlight are more accurate than models that do not consider cloud types.
The Chinese manufacturer was able to increase the panel efficiency from 18.04% to 19.04% in 16 months. The panel has a size of 2,005 mm x 1,005 mm x 35 mm and a weight of 34.5 kg.
Researchers in China have sought to increase the efficiency of heterojunction solar cell through a buffer layer made of indium tin oxide. This innovation reportedly resulted in a 0.1% efficiency increase deriving from optimized short-circuit current density and fill factor.
US scientists have developed a lithium-ion battery for electric vehicles that enables high range and fast charging in cold weather. The battery uses a single-ion conducting glassy solid electrolyte coating and does not require changes to chemistries or production processes.
Scientists in China have designed a solar self-insulated composite exterior wall panel, integrating a solar collector panel, PV panel, and insulation board. The proposed experimental setup has reportedly a static payback period of 1.1 years.
An Italian startup supported by a group of scientists is developing a V-shaped agrivoltaic system that can reportedly find optimal application with bifacial modules and single-axis tracking. The proposed system configuration is claimed to reduce land use by 24 % compared to conventional setups.
The U.S. heating specialist has agreed to invest an unspecified sum in Dutch startup Blueheart Energy, which is developing a 6 kW heat pump that works on acoustic waves and is able to produce both heat and cold air.
Spacelis is developing lightweight, rollable space-grade perovskite-organic tandem solar PV technology targeting space and terrestrial portable energy applications.
The MyGrid 10k home generator includes a 10 kW inverter and is rated for 6,000 cycles.
The Chinese battery maker has launched its next-gen lithium iron phosphate cell which can be integrated with both 1,500 V and 2,000 V platforms. It plans to establish mass production by June 30 with an annual manufacturing capacity layout of more than 80 GWh.
