Researchers from the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) in Lausanne, Switzerland, say they’re pushing the limits of solar cell performance and were able to achieve the highest performance ever measured for larger-size perovskite solar cells.
Read MoreResearchers at Harvard University have devised a different way to generate longer lasting fuel cells, this time using quantum materials.
Read MoreResearchers at Pohang University of Science & Technology have developed a micro-sized solid oxide fuel cell that incorporates a much more robust support—porous stainless steel, which significantly improves the cell’s thermal and mechanical stability.
Read MoreResearchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have developed a proof-of-concept for “solar cells so thin, flexible, and lightweight they could be placed on almost any material or surface,” according to an MIT press release.
Read MoreFor the second year in a row, Cleveland, Ohio, will play host to Ceramics Expo 2016, April 26–28—the industry’s only free-to-attend, twin track, commercial and manufacturing conference that runs parallel to the Expo. And here’s why you need to be there.
Read MoreTake a trip to the Eneco wind farm in Zeeland (in the Netherlands) and you’ll find an artistic take on the traditional turbine farm. Dutch artist Daan Roosegaarde designed “Windlicht” (or “Windlight”) to showcase the beauty of clean energy.
Read MoreStep aside wind and solar power. Researchers at Virginia Tech have discovered a way to maximize the amount of electricity that can be generated from the wastewater we flush down the toilet.
Read MoreResearchers at the University of Oxford in England say perovskites are the class of materials that will change the solar cell game not by themselves, but when teamed up with our reliable standby material, silicon.
Read MoreMaterials science has been and will continue to be at the forefront of clean energy innovations. In 2015, we reported on three major clean energy trends thanks to advanced materials and engineering.
