We’ve seen several transparent solar cell concepts, but perhaps none with such ambitious claims as those made by SolarWindow Technologies.

India's Cochin International Airport is now the first in the world to be powered solely on solar energy.

The world's first 5-star resort to be completely powered by solar proves that luxury does not have to be sacrificed in the name of sustainability.

The lower efficiencies mean that it takes years for homeowners and businesses to recoup the money they invest in solar power systems. If the efficiencies were higher, that time for return on investment would be slashed, people would be able to cover more of their power loads with renewable energy and solar power would be much more enticing to people and corporations.

The international exhibition on energy saving and renewable energy is an opportunity for enterprises to introduce their wind, solar, geothermal, biomass energy technologies; to advertise and make links with businesses through seminars.

Solar panels (40 pieces) were installed at the school, capable of providing about 30kWh of electricity per day, to meet the essential energy demands for running the essential equipment of the school activities.

Nottingham City Council has installed what is claimed to be the UK’s largest solar carport at the Harvey Hadden Leisure Centre.

The project is part of the local authority’s commitment to Bristol 2015 European Green Capital. The city has also installed a sculpture of two life size whales made from recycled bottles, marking the city’s green status.

The scheme allowed householders to make their homes more energy efficient by installing technologies such as solar panels or loft insulation. This was done through loans with no upfront cost which were repaid through energy bills.

Bristol’s harbourside museum is installing a solar array on its rooftop and boosting its energy efficiency.

In the implementation of energy development strategy, Ministry of Industry and Trade presided over the preparation of policies to support the development of renewable energy sources such as wind power, biomass power, electricity generated from solid wastes and solar power.

Three eco-friendly pioneers are heading off on the journey of a lifetime - a 20,000km (12,427 mile) ride in a solar-powered tuk tuk from Bangkok to Toulouse, France.

While the cost of solar power has dropped significantly from the early 2000s, there is still plenty of room for the technology to become cheaper, making it even more attractive as a substitute for fossil fuels.

Central Quang Binh province started work on a 13.7 million USD project in Bo Trach district on July 1 to supply solar power to far-flung areas outside the reach of the national grid.

The use of solar hot water heater brings about many benefits, such as less power consumption, ensuring regular supply of hot water, producing no noise, low maintenance costs and high durability.

The world’s first solar powered catwalk – the J Summer Fashion Show 2015 – took place last Friday evening, July 17th, at the Gemasolar plant outside Sevilla in southern Spain.

With a view to use renewable energy source, world’s fourth largest railway network, Indian Railways has rolled out its solar energy powered coaches.

Researchers in The Edward S. Rogers Sr. Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering used this insight to invent something totally new: they've combined two promising solar cell materials together for the first time, creating a new platform for LED technology.

A new device called SULI makes this into reality, combining solar technology with 3D printing to save light energy for later use in a multitude of ways.
