And the race was on.
Solar panel advances 2015.
2015 may be a record year for solar but technological advances.
However it s only in the last ten years or so that solar photovoltaics pv has really taken off as a renewable.
Solar panel technology has been around in some form for a long time bell labs invented the first useful solar cell more than 60 years ago and scientists have known for centuries that the sun can be used to produce energy.
So far this year the bloomberg global solar energy index is up 18 3 compared to just 2 5 for the s p 500 snpindex spx.
In addition to the on site environment which affects the performance of the pv module the impacts of shading have important effect on the energy supply capacity.
In the past year alone there have been milestones in solar efficiency solar energy storage wearable solar tech and solar design tech.
This paper presents the recent advances of the shading effect on the photovoltaic pv solar cells generation.
Read the latest news and techniques for efficient solar photovoltaic power new solar energy systems and more.
In january of 2016 researchers in switzerland achieved almost 30 efficiency.
Then the explosion happened.
Read on to get the complete update on all the breakthroughs you should know about in the world of new solar.
