There is a new solar facility in Iran. The Shiraz solar power plant boasts a modest 250 KW energy production capacity. It’s a solar thermal facility that uses parabolic mirrored troughs to gather sunlight. The [...]

Rainbow Solar Inc. found a new technology that could revolutionize the buildings and skyskrapers. The company has released details of its new semi-transparent solar window that can generate up to 250 watts of electricity while [...]

Abengoa Solar in Seville had installed a solar panels of Concentrix Solar. Those panels are 23 % efficient.
The 23% or better AC efficiency reflects the actual electricity fed into the grid after sunlight is first converted into DC (Direct Current) by the photovoltaic modules and then into AC by the inverter under actual field conditions.

I have already talked about Morgan Solar and their Simba Panels. They updated their website and put some new photos of the panels.
It seems that those panels seems to be more efficient then traditional solar panels, because their performance is between 24 and 28% of efficiency. Which is very good.
Some of the advantages of the [...]

There might be another possibility of producing solar panels - from Cadmium
Cadmium Advantages in Solar Panels Silikon based solar panels are facing price growth, so alternative photovoltaic technologies can step into the competition. There is Cadmium, which has several advantages over traditional silicon technology.
Those advantages are:

The electricity comes from properties of two types of cadmium [...]

Solar panels developped by construction company that use peel-and-stick technology to attach to roofs. The company is called Lumeta, a subsidiary of DRI. Just watch the video. The roof is done in minuts…. Incredible……

“Solar needs to become part of the building envelope and this is a step towards that,” said Stephen Torres, COO of Lumeta. [...]

Best solar panels to use, best brand of solar panels for value vs. efficiency, based on a short interview with Dan Yechout of Namasta Solar

SunPower and Sanyo solar panels are two high efficiency and high end brands which means you get the most power per square foot but also the highest cost per watt. SunPower [...]

The great ideas are often simple. When you have solar PV panels to produce electricity - you produce electricity. Or when you have solar water heaters - you produce hot water for your need. A company I want you to introduce is making a solar system which is generating electricity AND capturing the heat [...]

An English company, IDC, has announced plans to mass-produce an inflatable solar panel and make it commercially available for less than 100 pounds ($200) , a great leap forward in making green energy available to the masses.

Capable of heating up to 3 full tanks of water, IDC envisions the panels being used primarily in developing [...]

A company from Wyoming is producing solar panels for cars. The company is developing solar cells which are couple of inches thick and large enough to fit on the roof of your car…. Pretty cool. The solar system like this is capable to supply power to a variety of elements in your car!
The roof-mounted solar [...]
