The demonstrator model, based on Madrid urban conditions, is able to calculate yields but can also be used to evaluate alternative maximum power point tracking (MPPT) algorithms. The team combined ...
Research by 3E and Statkraft has used a new performance measure for solar trackers to uncover “alarming” evidence of a gap between claimed and actual performance.
Solar cells face significant challenges when deployed in outer space, where extremes in the environment decrease the efficiency and longevity they enjoy back on Earth. University of Toledo physicists ...
The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) has launched a computing platform titled Simulation, Technology, ...
FTC Solar, Inc. engages in the manufacture and service of solar tracker systems in the United States, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, South Africa, and Australia. The company provides a ...
Researchers report that gold nanospheres, named supraballs, can absorb nearly all wavelengths in sunlight — including some ...
The CompSTLar project is using laser-induced graphene (LIG) to create smart skins, combining data with simulations to enable virtual stress tests for in situ monitoring and prediction.
