Rethinking module geometry beyond the traditional rectangle could increase rooftop PV capacity on irregular buildings by improving packing efficiency and expanding placement options.

The global photovoltaic (PV) industry is entering a phase defined less by headline capacity additions and more by incremental but compounding improvements in efficiency, reliability, and ...

Solar power is no longer inching forward, it is compounding. In laboratories and early commercial lines, scientists are ...

The future of solar module design will be heavier, not lighter. With hail and extreme weather events increasing, module manufacturers are expected to shift toward thicker glass to improve impact ...

“We see a decoupling between what modules are expected to survive based on previous industry knowledge, and what they’re actually able to survive in testing,” says Colin Sillerud. Image: CFV Labs.

Aesolar and Fraunhofer CSP’s segmented shade-resistant module technology aims to drastically reduce energy loss caused by partial shading. Image: Fraunhofer CSP. Shading has traditionally encumbered ...

Europe’s new red solar panels blend into terracotta roofs, generating clean energy, boost public acceptance, and are built to ...

For many homeowners, installing rooftop solar panels seems like a smart idea to reduce electricity bills, but the upfront cost and installation complexity ...

The signing ceremony was held at CTF Solar’s headquarters in Dresden, Germany. The agreement was signed by Tim Young, Chief ...

"We are developing certain modules that will be standard." Researchers develop powerful new technology that could transform space missions: 'We're just starting to see some of the results' first ...
