Researchers from Linköping University in Sweden believe they may have found a solution that could let solar manufacturers ...

Manufacturing solar panels is a dirty process from start to finish. Mining quartz for silicon causes the lung disease silicosis, and the production of solar cells uses a lot of energy, water ...

Researchers in India have demonstrated a wet chemical process to recover silicon with high purity from end-of-life solar panels, which they used to make functionalized silica nanoparticles.

In a study published in Nature, researchers at Linköping University have developed a method to recycle all parts of a solar ...

The solar industry recently welcomed the largest silicon solar cell manufacturing outfit to ever open its doors within the ...

How Solar Panels Work Solar panels are marvels of modern technology, harnessing the vast power of the sun. These devices ...

“Our method can be applied to all silicon-based solar panels,” researcher Ady Suwardi told pv magazine. The scientists said thermoelectric devices are very tolerant to defects and ...

Bitcoin mining company Solteir announced a partnership with OPTEC to have its mining operations in Pennsylvania run on clean solar energy. Bitcoin mining firm Solteir announced its new renewable ...

A solar cell is made of two types of semiconductors, called p-type and n-type silicon. The p-type silicon is produced by adding atoms—such as boron or gallium—that have one less electron in their ...

For a long time, the solar panel market was dominated by China because of that country's control of the silicon supply chain. But the solar-panel tides may be turning, as Japan has created a solar ...

Solar panels are marvels of modern technology, harnessing the vast power of the sun. These devices utilize photovoltaic (PV) cells to turn sunlight directly into electricity.
