CIGS cells use extremely thin layers of semiconductor material applied to a low-cost backing such as glass, flexible metallic foils, high-temperature polymers or stainless steel sheets. Thin-film cells require less energy to make and can be fabricated by a variety of processes. Because of this, they provide a promising path for providing more affordable [...]

If you think that you need a piece of mind, this gadget is a must for you. A solar battery charger for your cellphone. It comes from Japan.

This little cell phone strap from Strap-Ya is actually a small solar cell that can store energy and charge your phone. It can be charged up to 500 [...]

Thist time it’s for good. I beleive that this technology will bring the solar energy to the masses. Let’s have a look. I already talked about Nanosolar’s flexible solar panels which can lower the producing costs. But few days ago Konaraka announced succesfull testing a inkjet printing technology to produce a solar panels.

“Inkjet printing is [...]
