A research team have fabricated a solar thermoelectric generator (STEG) that is reportedly 15 times more efficient than current state-of-the-art devices by concentrating on the managing the hot and the cold sides of the device rather its semiconductor materials.
A study explored the relationship between energy insecurity and severe energy-limiting behaviors to lower bills, and how interventions with rooftop solar and energy storage systems can allow recipients to live safely and comfortably in their homes while also being able to afford necessities like food and medicine.
Research from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology highlights 81 unique innovations across a diverse range of research efforts and industries that have impacted PV system costs since 1970, the majority of which originate from outside the sector.
An in-depth study looked at the varying facets within Washington’s agriculture industry to determine how and where agrivoltaics can be best implemented to help meet the state’s energy needs and provide financial support to the state’s agriculture industry.
A research team from Temple University in Philadelphia analyzed the synergies and trade-offs of land conversion to agrivoltaics and other multi-use solar energy landscapes globally. They found that co-located solar systems should be specifically tailored in order to offer optimal performance and minimize negative impacts.
A research survey of farmers and ranchers across Washington state offers insight into how developers can best approach solar development in The Evergreen State.
When designed right, colocating apple orchards and solar installations can be not only economically beneficial for the landowner, but produce a higher rate of marketable apples.
A new report from RMI urges caution and responsible new generation planning.
New analysis of retrofitting solar power plants with energy storage, accounting for the industry’s rapidly falling prices, suggests that prepping your solar projects today has a strong chance of being in your financial interest.
PG&E’s most frequent reason for delaying projects is “prioritization,” which added an average of 8.4 years to the project time, an analysis from the nonprofit Union of Concerned Scientists found.
