A team of researchers at the Ikerlan-IK4 technological centre in Spain have made a laboratory-scale photoelectric panel which, apart from fulfilling the function of converting solar light into electricity, solves the problems of integratability and availability that current technology presents.
The installation of solar photoelectric panels – capable of converting the sun’s [...]
Semantic Web Promises A Smarter Electricity Grid
Image via Wikipedia
Dispersed wind farms and solar panels on people’s homes are posing new challenges for managing power grids that were designed when all electricity was generated in centralised plants. A new semantic web technology promises a solution.
Managing increasingly dispersed energy resources – from far-flung wind farms on remote mountaintops to racks of solar panels [...]
