A group of researchers at Stanford University has investigated the potential of transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) solar cells for light harvesting in indoor environments and has found that ...

A greenhouse with a perovskite solar cell rooftop led to faster growth and larger leaves in radicchio seedlings ...

Eight months ago, a state-funded French research institute and Japanese textiles company Toyobo announced they would join forces to develop superior organic solar cells for indoor applications.

"There are no other solar cell companies that are working in the indoor [solar cell] space with the scale, design and customer base that we have. Since the first products with Powerfoyle were ...

The company is also establishing facilities to mass-produce indoor perovskite solar cells, aiming to commence production by the end of this year, according to the press release.

There has been great hope for perovskite solar cells because they have the potential to produce low cost solar energy in a wide variety of applications, where conventional cells will not work.

The same dirt that clings to astronauts' boots may one day keep their lights on. Researchers created solar cells made out of simulated Moon dust. The cells convert sunlight into energy efficiently, ...
