Solar energy breakthrough could reduce need for solar farms
Scientists at Oxford University have developed a groundbreaking approach to generating solar electricity without silicon-based panels. Their innovation involves coating a new, ultra-thin, and flexible light-absorbing material onto everyday objects like rucksacks, cars, and mobile phones. This material uses a multi-junction technique to stack multiple light-absorbing layers into one solar cell, capturing a broader spectrum […]
Revolutionary gel could save homes from devastating wildfires
As climate change leads to hotter and drier conditions, fire seasons are becoming longer and wildfires more frequent and severe, devastating communities and economies. To address this growing threat, Stanford researchers have developed a water-enhancing gel that can be sprayed on homes and critical infrastructure to prevent them from burning during wildfires. This new gel […]
