Snaith 1* 1234567890():,; Looking beyond energy harvesting, metal-halide perovskites offer great opportunities to revolutionise large-area photodetection technologies due to their high absorption coeffi- cients, long diffusion lengths, low trap densities and simple processability. However, suc- cessful extraction of photocarriers from perovskites and their conversion to electrical signals remain challenging due to the interdependency of photogain and dark current density. -

Nature and Science 2015;13(7) http://www.sciencepub.net/nature Renewable Energy Development in Tehran Municipality; Case Study Comparison with IEA Report Zohreh Hesami1, Ali Mohamad Shaeri2, Farshad Kordani3 1. Ph.D., Head of air pollution and energy committee, Environment and sustainable development Staff, Tehran municipality 2. Ph.D., Head of Environment and sustainable development Staff, Tehran municipality 3. M.S, Energy Engineer of Environment and sustainable development Staff, Tehran Municipality [email protected] Abstract: In recent years, most of the municipalities have focused on renewable energy as a straight way toward sustainability, lowering energy demand, protecting environment and society. Policies to promote renewable energy have become increasingly popular among municipalities in different parts of the world, especially somewhere role of municipalities is integrated city management. In this way, there are certain strategies to meet the targets which have been already set. Specifying certain green building standards for new construction and major renovation for any projects using public funds, creating inspiring demonstration projects that meet high green building standards, developing systems where certified green buildings can cut through the red tape in the approval process, tax credits which offset some of the cost for energy conserving projects, are some of proceeds of municipalities to develop renewable energies in action. Tehran municipality has tried a lot to set goals and action plans to promote renewable energy in the city in spite of lack of integrated management in Tehran. According to the guidance of the International Energy Agency report two municipalities with most similarity to Tehran were selected from the report to identify and compare some concepts and policies in this paper. -

Ginger Chemistry Solution processable materials present a competitive alternative to traditional silicon solar cells based on inexpensive processing and flexible form factors. Several competing technologies have entered the market in the past few years, including cadmium telluride and copper, indium, gallium, sulfur (CIGS) alloys. In addition to this nascent commercialized product, several emerging technologies also offer promising alternatives. Copper, zinc, tin, sulfur (CZTS) kesterite materials offers an earth abundant option, moving away from more price volatile minerals such as the indium used in CIGS. Hybrid perovskites (HPs) have been revealed as one of the most exciting new solution processable materials, with efficiency improving exponentially in just the past several years.

Electrical Hints and Tips for Solar Car Challenge Race Teams
Electrical Hints and Tips for Solar Car Challenge Race Teams Revision 1.0 - August 28, 2013. By Dan Lepinski, Solar Engineer In the Public Domain To: All Teams Participating in the Solar Car Challenge .. Past, Present, and Future... Purpose: Suggestions and Comments for Improved Design and Assembly of Solar Cars Introduction By way of introduction, my name is Dan Lepinski. I’m a professional solar energy engineer. 2013 is my 41 st year of involvement in the solar energy industry where I continue to serve as a design engineer, consultant, and advisor. I had the pleasure and frustration of accompanying the 2013 race from Fort Worth, Texas to Los Angeles, California. My role was that of a volunteer. I provided solar-generated 120 volt AC electrical power for any team that needed it for repairs or other purposes along the way. I accomplished this with a large “solar” trailer, which was capable of powering the largest welders and compressors used by any team. 11 of the 14 teams participating in the 2013 Solar Car Challenge used power from my equipment along the race route for their welders, grinders, compressors, drills, saws, and more. They did whatever was necessary to make their cars roadworthy again. Some teams worked for up to an hour or more at a time to effect changes and repairs. It’s not important they used my equipment for this purpose. The important thing to remember ... every 2013 team succeeded in finishing the race. While repairs were underway by various teams, I had an opportunity to view their solar car wiring and construction in detail. -

Next-Generation Solar Power Dutch Technology for the Solar Energy Revolution Next-Generation High-Tech Excellence
Next-generation solar power Dutch technology for the solar energy revolution Next-generation high-tech excellence Harnessing the potential of solar energy calls for creativity and innovative strength. The Dutch solar sector has been enabling breakthrough innovations for decades, thanks in part to close collaboration with world-class research institutes and by fostering the next generation of high-tech talent. For example, Dutch student teams have won a record ten titles in the World Solar Challenge, a biennial solar-powered car race in Australia, with students from Delft University of Technology claiming the title seven out of nine times. 2 Solar Energy Guide 3 Index The sunny side of the Netherlands 6 Breeding ground of PV technology 10 Integrating solar into our environment 16 Solar in the built environment 18 Solar landscapes 20 Solar infrastructure 22 Floating solar 24 Five benefits of doing business with the Dutch 26 Dutch solar expertise in brief 28 Company profiles 30 4 Solar Energy Guide The Netherlands, a true solar country If there’s one thing the Dutch are remarkably good at, it’s making the most of their natural circumstances. That explains how a country with a relatively modest amount of sunshine has built a global reputation as a leading innovator in solar energy. For decades, Dutch companies and research institutes have been among the international leaders in the worldwide solar PV sector. Not only with high-level fundamental research, but also with converting this research into practical applications. Both by designing and refining industrial production processes, and by developing and commercialising innovative solutions that enable the integration of solar PV into a product or environment with another function. -
A Photovoltaic Greenhouse with Variable Shading for the Optimization of Agricultural and Energy Production
energies Article A Photovoltaic Greenhouse with Variable Shading for the Optimization of Agricultural and Energy Production Simona Moretti and Alvaro Marucci * Department of Agricultural and Forest Sciences, University of Tuscia, Via San Camillo de Lellis, s.n.c., 01100 Viterbo, Italy * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +39-0761-357-365 Received: 11 June 2019; Accepted: 3 July 2019; Published: 5 July 2019 Abstract: The cultivation of plants in greenhouses currently plays a role of primary importance in modern agriculture, both for the value obtained with the products made and because it favors the development of highly innovative technologies and production techniques. An intense research effort in the field of energy production from renewable sources has increasingly led to the development of greenhouses which are partially covered by photovoltaic elements. The purpose of this study is to present the potentiality of an innovative prototype photovoltaic greenhouse with variable shading to optimize energy production by photovoltaic panels and agricultural production. With this prototype, it is possible to vary the shading inside the greenhouse by panel rotation, in relation to the climatic conditions external to the greenhouse. An analysis was made for the solar radiation available during the year, for cases of completely clear sky and partial cloud, by considering the 15th day of each month. In this paper, the results show how the shading variation enabled regulation of the internal radiation, choosing the minimum value of necessary radiation, because the internal microclimatic parameters must be compatible with the needs of the plant species grown in the greenhouses. Keywords: dynamic photovoltaic greenhouse; variable shading; renewable source; passive cooling system 1. -
