Scientists at Mohammed VI Polytechnic University in Morocco have proposed the use of luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) in greenhouses and agrivoltaic installations. LSCs are commonly used as ...
A Dutch-Australian research team has developed a 1 cm3 luminescent solar concentrator (LSC) device, equipped with 20%-efficient bifacial silicon PV cells, which can be used and assembled in several ...
SolFocus, a solar company with roots at Xerox's Palo Alto Research Park, said that it closed $25 million in financing that it will use to increase production of its solar concentrator technology.
Luminescent solar concentrators (LSCs) are a promising class of devices designed to harvest diffuse solar radiation by employing a transparent matrix embedded with luminescent materials. These ...
A new solar concentrator design from an electrical engineering Ph.D. student at the University of California, San Diego could lead to solar concentrators that are less expensive and require fewer ...
In this video we dive into compound parabolic concentrators (CPCs) and their incredible ability to focus light from multiple input angles onto a central target at once. This allows them to provide ...
IBM Research and Switzerland-based Airlight Energy today announced a new parabolic dish that increases the sun’s radiation by 2,000 times while also producing fresh water and air conditioning. The new ...
