United Kingdom – New research from Oxford Brookes University has found that the vertical turbine design is far more efficient than traditional turbines in large scale wind farms, and when set in pairs the vertical turbines increase each other’s performance by up to 15%. A research team from the School of Engineering, Computing and Mathematics […]

United Kingdom – Scientists at the University of Manchester have found a way to accelerate the uptake of solar technology, by increasing the environmental safety of perovskite solar cells. Perovskite solar cells can be mass produced through roll-to-roll processing. Perovskite solar cells contain lead, a cumulative toxin, and if the cells get damaged, lead ions […]
