#High efficiency concentrating solar cells move to the rooftop Ultra-high efficiency solar cells similar to those used in space may now be possible on your rooftop thanks to a new microscale solar concentration technology developed by an international team

you can put a system like this on your roof, which is where the majority of solar panels throughout the world are installed.

To enable CPV on rooftops the researchers combined miniaturized, gallium arsenide photovoltaic cells, 3d-printed plastic lens arrays and a moveable focusing mechanism to reduce the size,

and create something similar to a traditional solar panel that can be placed on the south-facing side of a building roof.

which allows small motors using a minimal amount of force for the mechanical tracking. he vision is that such a microtracking CPV panel could be placed on a roof in the same space as a traditional solar panel

Zhang and Wang carried this hybridization technique a step further as they determined the optimal conditions the window for each experiment, based on simulations.

#UCLA chemists devise technology that could transform solar energy storage The materials in most of today residential rooftop solar panels can store energy from the sun for only a few microseconds at a time.

and keeping positive and negative charges separated, Tolbert said. hat separation is the key to making the process so efficient. o capture energy from sunlight, conventional rooftop solar cells use silicon, a fairly expensive material.
