In comparison, previous accelerated testing studies found that panels should lose up to 1% per year in performance. This new study puts holes in that theory, and though not all panels are likely to ...

Agrivoltaics combines solar panels and agriculture on the same land. It’ll be an uphill battle for it to hit the mainstream.

Using data collected by NASA's Parker Solar Probe during its closest approach to the sun, a University of Arizona-led ...

Scientists have long relied on tree rings to learn about ancient solar storms—rare bursts of high-energy particles from the ...

A new study of solar installations from the 1980s and ’90s found many still generating most of their original power.

Engineers have developed a way to monitor solar cells at a microscopic level while they are operating – to discover exactly how damage caused by ultraviolet light can be naturally repaired.

Solar collectors and absorbers convert solar radiation into thermal energy, playing a crucial role in meeting global heating demands across various sectors.

Scientists have found that certain crops can grow remarkably well in the shade of solar panels, potentially allowing us to grow food and generate clean energy simultaneously. Growing food alongside ...

Federal tax credits for residential solar panels, batteries and heat pumps expired, eliminating incentives that previously saved homeowners thousands of dollars. Emerging lease-to-own models and ...
