5 Inventions Showing Us the Future of Solar Energy
When you imagine the energy of the future, solar power is probably in the picture – but in recent years, less than 2% of the world’s electricity has come from solar power. Here are 5 new inventions that are likely to change that.

The beautiful future of solar power | Marjan van Aubel
The sun delivers more energy to earth in one hour than all of humanity uses in an entire year. How can we make this power more accessible to everyone, everywhere? Solar designer Marjan van Aubel shows how she's turning everyday objects like tabletops and stained glass windows into elegant solar cells -- and shares her vision to make every surface a power station.

How Offshore Solar Could be the Future of Energy
How Offshore Solar Could be the Future of Energy. Go to https://brilliant.org/Undecided/ and get 20% off your subscription and a 30 day free trial with Brilliant.org! What’s stopping us from converting the open ocean into a massive solar power plant? After all, land has always been a complicated issue in the world of renewables, and as populations grow denser, it’s all the more relevant. How do we balance the urgency of the clean energy transition with the space needed for agriculture, housing, and conservation? Establishing offshore wind farms is one way. But it also turns out that we can also stand to gain a lot from offshore solar. That is, if we can figure out how to steady marine floating photovoltaics in the same way we’re already experimenting with freshwater FPV. Developing seawort...

Are floating solar farms the future of clean energy? - BBC News
Over the past two years, energy prices have soared to record levels across Europe, leading to renewed efforts to harness renewable resources.
Portugal has turned its sights to solar power – and the country is now home to Europe’s largest floating solar farm.
Located on a reservoir in southern Portugal, the farm is the size of five football pitches and is made up of 12,000 photovoltaic panels.
It generates enough energy to power 15,000 homes in the local area.
This film is from Click – the BBC’s flagship technology programme.

Are perovskite cells a game-changer for solar energy?
Imagine creating solar panels without relying on materials in short supply and adopting an eco-friendlier production process. And at the same time boosting efficiency? Enter perovskite tandem solar cells—an innovation that has long held the promise of revolutionizing the solar energy landscape. But where are they in their development, and could they truly represent the future of solar panel technology?

The Rise Of Solar Power
Solar power is on the rise. You can see the evidence on rooftops and in the desert, where utility-scale solar plants are popping up. The picture is not all rosy, but if the recent past is any indication, solar power is going to help lead the transition to a carbon-free future, and it might do it faster than we all expected.
Elon Musk and Tesla promised solar roof tiles in 2016, but the industry might not need an upgrade as its grown significantly with the solar panels currently available. You can see the evidence both on individual rooftops and in the utility-scale solar plants increasingly popping up in deserts across the country. In the United States, of all about 30% of the new power capacity added to the grid in 2018 was from solar.
But the picture is not all rosy. Solar power (and s...

Technologies that will take solar energy to a new level
The solar energy revolution is happening right before our eyes. The successful transmission of solar energy from space to earth is demonstrating new possibilities for the use of solar power. The world's first train powered by solar panels has been created. In this video, we will discuss this and many other exciting advancements in solar energy, including a new contactless method for cleaning solar panels that could increase the efficiency of solar energy use in homes and buildings.

Over the past two years, energy prices have soared to record levels across Europe, leading to renewed efforts to harness renewable resources.
Portugal has turned its sights to solar power – and the country is now home to Europe’s largest floating solar farm.
Located on a reservoir in southern Portugal, the farm is the size of five football pitches and is made up of 12,000 photovoltaic panels.
It generates enough energy to power 15,000 homes in the local area.
This film is from Click – the BBC’s flagship technology programme.

Imagine creating solar panels without relying on materials in short supply and adopting an eco-friendlier production process. And at the same time boosting efficiency? Enter perovskite tandem solar cells—an innovation that has long held the promise of revolutionizing the solar energy landscape. But where are they in their development, and could they truly represent the future of solar panel technology?
#planeta #perovskite #solarenergy
We're destroying our environment at an alarming rate. But it doesn't need to be this way. Our new channel Planet A explores the shift towards an eco-friendly world — and challenges our ideas about what dealing with climate change means. We look at the big and the small: What we can do and how the system needs to change. Every Friday we'll take a truly global look at how to get us out of this mess.

Solar power is on the rise. You can see the evidence on rooftops and in the desert, where utility-scale solar plants are popping up. The picture is not all rosy, but if the recent past is any indication, solar power is going to help lead the transition to a carbon-free future, and it might do it faster than we all expected.
Elon Musk and Tesla promised solar roof tiles in 2016, but the industry might not need an upgrade as its grown significantly with the solar panels currently available. You can see the evidence both on individual rooftops and in the utility-scale solar plants increasingly popping up in deserts across the country. In the United States, of all about 30% of the new power capacity added to the grid in 2018 was from solar.
But the picture is not all rosy. Solar power (and sunshine) is intermittent and the price of lithium ion batteries, one of the most popular current storage solutions, is still relatively high.
These are real problems that the industry needs to tackle if solar is going to reach its potential. However, if the recent past is any indication, solar power is going to help lead the transition to a carbon-free future, and it might do it faster than we all expected. Watch the video to learn more.

The solar energy revolution is happening right before our eyes. The successful transmission of solar energy from space to earth is demonstrating new possibilities for the use of solar power. The world's first train powered by solar panels has been created. In this video, we will discuss this and many other exciting advancements in solar energy, including a new contactless method for cleaning solar panels that could increase the efficiency of solar energy use in homes and buildings.
