High-temperature steam might be used in remote regions to cook, clean, or sterilize medical equipment. MIT engineers have built a device that soaks up enough heat from the sun to boil water... Read more
A team of researchers at Michigan State University has developed a new type of solar concentrator that when placed over a window creates solar energy while allowing people to actually see th... Read more
Solar cells are the most expensive part of a solar panel So it would follow that if panels could produce the same amount of electricity with less cells, then their prices would come down. In... Read more
A new solar concentrator design from an electrical engineering Ph.D. student at the University of California, San Diego could lead to solar concentrators that are less expensive and require... Read more
