DARPA challenged the industry and the research community to make solar cells more efficient -- as measured by how well a solar cell converts the light it absorbs into electrical energy. http://www.huliq.com/11/70274/new-optics-improved-solar-power-generators#comments Science generators optics solar power Thu, 09 Oct 2008 07:31:14 -0500 harminka 70274 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/11/68420/slicing-solar-power-costs University of Utah engineers devised a new way to slice thin wafers of the chemical element germanium for use in the most efficient type of solar power cells. They say the new method should lower the cost of such cells by reducing the waste and breakage of the brittle semiconductor. http://www.huliq.com/11/68420/slicing-solar-power-costs#comments Science solar power Mon, 15 Sep 2008 07:16:26 -0500 harminka 68420 at http://www.huliq.com http://www.huliq.com/3169/67753/chinas-first-solar-electric-car-unveiled-anhui China's first electric car using solar energy for compensatory power has been successfully developed by an Anhui high-tech company and the car made its debut in the provincial capital of Heifei on August 29, reported Auto Weekly today. http://www.huliq.com/3169/67753/chinas-first-solar-electric-car-unveiled-anhui#comments Business car china Chinese car electric cars solar power Fri, 05 Sep 2008 05:22:17 -0500 kellywang 67753 at http://www.huliq.com
