Scientists have created a transparent solar coating that turns ordinary windows into clean energy generators without affecting clarity. Using cholesteric liquid crystal layers, the coating redirects ...

One of the hindrances to large-scale solar adoption, especially in cities, is where to install the chunky panels. Rooftops? Skyscraper walls? Vast open spaces that dense urban centers barely have in ...

Researchers created transparent solar windows that capture sunlight at the edges, cutting PV cell needs while keeping buildings visually unchanged. The device, called a cholesteric unidirectional ...

We are all used to seeing black solar panels mounted on the roofs and on the ground. However, over the last few years, transparent solar panels have emerged as a viable option for integrating solar ...

Here's the best home energy technology we saw this year, from giant batteries to stained glass solar panels to machines that harvest water from thin air. While electricity keeps all your tech running, ...

Perovskite solar cells are easier to make and customize than silicon ones, but it'll be a few years before you see them on your office window. In a nutshell, perovskite (say that 10 times slow) is the ...
