Solar panels use photovoltaic cells that release electrons when sun shines on them. This creates an electrical current. Inverters turn it into useable power.

Find out how solar cells power a good portion of homes today—and how they might power almost everything in the future.

Learn how to create your own energy solar cell at home with this step-by-step tutorial. This video will guide you through the ...

As an alternative to lead-based perovskites, the researchers have found that by using phenothiazine — a self-assembled ...

An international research team of photovoltaics scientists has taken a crucial step toward the industrialization of ...

Solar panels do work on cloudy days, because despite cloud cover — which blocks, reflects, and absorbs sunlight — some diffused sunlight still penetrates through to reach the panels.

The method opens the door to fine-tuning the structure of perovskites for high-performance tandem solar cells, with the ...
