Spire Solar Iberia has developed a state-of-the-art XL solar simulator that is able to measure the maximum power of photovoltaic modules of any size with high precision and to identify those with low ...

To keep a solar-powered HAPS flying continuously, its power generation must exceed its consumption. While predicting the power consumption of the motors is straightforward, predicting the power ...

To address the challenge of characterizing curved, three-dimensional vehicle-integrated photovoltaics (VIPV), scientists at the Polytechnic University of Madrid developed the design principles and ...

Analysts interested in measuring the degradation of molecules due to photodegradation should consider using a photochemical reactor. There are two photochemical reactors in the engineering ...

The U.S. National Renewable Energy Laboratory has adopted Synopsys’ Sentaurus TCAD package for simulating solar cell characteristics to improve performance. The simulations provide NREL scientists ...

New research from IBM and NASA has used AI to power a new and improved simulation of the Sun's activity, allowing marked improvements in the prediction of solar activity. The project, called Surya, is ...

A total solar eclipse is coming to North America on April 8. The Great North American Eclipse, as it has been dubbed, will be visible across 13 US States, plus parts of Mexico and eastern Canada. But ...
