United States Secure Hosting Center (USSHC) announced today a new program designed to reduce the environmental impact associated with colocated equipment.
The University of Delaware's Institute of Energy Conversion (IEC) will receive $3.75 million from the U.S. Department of Energy's Solar America Initiative over the next three years to continue leading-edge research on photovoltaic-based solar cells.
Black carbon, a form of particulate air pollution most often produced from biomass burning, cooking with solid fuels and diesel exhaust, has a warming effect in the atmosphere three to four times greater than prevailing estimates, according to scientists in an upcoming review article in the journal Nature Geoscience.
Vasilis Fthenakis, head of the National Photovoltaic Environmental Research Center at the U.S. Department of Energy's Brookhaven National Laboratory, will give a talk titled "Solar Grand Plan" at the Laboratory's Berkner Hall on Monday, April 21, at noon. Part of an Earth Day celebration, the talk is free and open to the public. Visitors to the Laboratory age 16 and older must bring a photo ID.
GT Solar Incorporated, a key global provider of a comprehensive range of equipment and turnkey manufacturing solutions to the solar power industry, announced today it has signed a follow-on contract valued at approximately $200 million to supply DC Chemical Co., Ltd. (DCC) of South Korea with polysilicon reactors.
Researchers at Boston College and MIT have used nanotechnology to achieve a major increase in thermoelectric efficiency, a milestone that paves the way for a new generation of products - from semiconductors and air conditioners to car exhaust systems and solar power technology - that run cleaner.
Ascent Solar Technologies, Inc. today announced that it has been selected by the U.S. Air Force to continue development of a flexible thin-film tandem solar cell with a goal of achieving photovoltaic conversion efficiencies of 20%.
A cheap alternative to silicon solar cells can be found in dye-sensitised solar cells. This type of cell imitates the natural conversion of sunlight into energy by, for instance, plants and light-sensitive bacteria. Annemarie Huijser has succeeded in substantially improving a process in this type of solar cell, which is similar to Gratzel cells. Huijser will receive her PhD on this subject from TU Delft on Tuesday 25 March.
Governor Edward G. Rendell said multi-million-dollar renewable energy projects, like the solar electricity generation plant he helped break ground on today in Bucks County, reinforce Pennsylvania's leadership in one of the nation's fastest growing industries and highlight the potential for jobs and economic development.
Just in time for spring, Wal-Mart announces a program to create rubber garden mulch from recycled tires, a step in the company's ongoing commitments to reaching its zero waste goal and providing access to affordable eco-friendly products.
