Professor Bo Zhao of the University of Houston has reported on the development of a new form of solar energy collection technology called thermophotovoltaics (STPV) which has achieved record-breaking efficiency levels.
[pdf] Morocco is taking a major leap toward sustainable energy with the development of its largest rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) system, thanks to a groundbreaking partnership between Empower New Energy and Saray Immo.
[pdf] The silicon cells in monocrystalline solar panels produce electricity through the photovoltaic (PV) effect. This effect occurs when sunlight hits the silicon crystal and excites the electrons inside. The movement of these electrons is what generates electricity.
