With the creation of a 3-D nanocone-based solar cell platform, a team led by Oak Ridge National Laboratory’s Jun Xu has boosted the light-to-power conversion efficiency of photovoltaics by nearly 80 percent. Nanocone-based solar cell consisting of n-type nanocones, p-type matrix, transparent conductive oxide (TCO) and glass substrate.

While the first application of the data factory will be used to discover new catalysts to make fuel cell vehicles more efficient, TRI and Northwestern believe this method of materials discovery will have wide-ranging applications in the future such as clean hydrogen production, CO 2 removal from air and high-efficiency solar cells.

Smaller Ioxus cells offer a power density of 22-28 kW/kg, and larger cells offer densities of 12-15 kW/kg, said Chad Hall, COO of Ioxus. Ioxus expects a new set of cells, targeted for release at the end of the year with different terminations, to surpass Maxwell’s large cells in both volumetric and gravimetric power densities.

Knowing how many solar panels are on a roof informs us about the maximum possible rate of local generation but not about the annual capacity factor or about the final uses of generated electricity. This means that in 2019 about 770 million people had no electricity, three-quarters of them in Africa. What does 50 kWh/year deliver?

The Practical Power of Fusing Photons Chad Hagen Silicon solar cells are relatively cheap and plentiful, but they miss out on a lot of energy in sunlight. Instead of knocking excitons around, phonons in this molecule bind to them to create a new quasiparticle that flow freely through the semiconductor at twice the speed of electrons.
