Imec beats silicon PV with 27.1% perovskite-silicon tandem
Imec has announced a record result for its 4-terminal Perovskite/silicon tandem photovoltaic cell. With a power conversion efficiency of 27.1%, the imec tandem cell beats the most efficient standalone silicon solar cell. Further careful engineering of the Perovskite material will bring efficiencies over 30% in reach. Perovskite microcrystals are a promising material system to make high-performance thin-film solar cells.
String PV Inverter Series at Intersolar Europe 2018
It has been announced by Delta that it is launching its new 1,500VDC string solar PV inverter M125HV series alongside a broad portfolio of energy saving lithium-ion battery energy storage solutions at Intersolar Europe.
Material formed from crab shells could replace cling film
From liquid laundry detergent packaged in cardboard to compostable plastic cups, consumer products these days are increasingly touting their sustainable and renewable origins. Now researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology have created a material derived from crab shells and tree fibres that has the potential to replace the flexible plastic packaging used to keep food fresh.
Creating growth opportunities for material manufacturers
In the recent analysis from Frost & Sullivan, Material Technologies Shaping the Future of Electric Vehicles (EV), the material technologies used in EVs is discussed by analysing recent global and regional trends. It found that electric vehicle manufacturers are looking at materials as a lever of growth for EV adoption.
Collaboration produces efficient solar power generated hydrogen
It has been announced that the University of Miyazaki, the University of Tokyo, Fujitsu Laboratories, and Sumitomo Electric, have used a trial system to create hydrogen energy from solar power in Miyazaki.
Engine sound for electric and hybrid electric vehicles
It has been announced that Analog Devices (ADI) has introduced an embedded system for generating engine sound for electric (EV) and hybrid electric vehicles (HEV), with the ADSP-BF706 digital signal processor and Electric Vehicle Warning Sound System (EVWSS) firmware.
