According to a new study by SolarMoves, vehicle-integrated photovoltaics offer great potential for decarbonising our transport.
“Floatovoltaics” are an emerging technology, but their environmental impacts are still unknown.
The combination of solar power generation and agriculture - agrovoltaics - comes with benefits and problems. Can a new design generate electricity and increase crop yields?
Cheaper and thinner solar power cells could lead to more affordable and more accessible renewable energy - for more people. But does it also bring new challenges?
Swapping out glass panels for transparent solar modules, and harnessing the energy from wavelengths of light not used during photosynthesis, could help turn greenhouses into self-sufficient solar power plants.
SunCrafter has developed a way to transform discarded solar panels into charging stations for festivals, power supplies for off-grid areas and even a sustainable solution for electric scooters. Reset talked to co-founder Lisa Wendzich to find out more.
How do you power a tropical island with little land, but over 300 days of sun a year? The solution: putting photovoltaic systems out to sea.
Solar power trade-offs are a classic problem for clean energy solutions — the cheapest solar panels are usually the least efficient, because they don’t use complicated manufacturing processes.
The USA currently ranks fourth in the world for solar power generation. But just how many solar panels is that? And who is using them?
