Bosch Power Tec BPT-S 5 Hybrid intelligent energy storage solution
29 October, 2013 | Supplied by: Robert Bosch (Australia) Pty LtdBosch Power Tec’s BPT-S 5 Hybrid intelligent energy storage solution is suitable for domestic photovoltaic systems. The product stores the electricity produced during the day so that a family can draw on it when the sun goes down.
First Solar to build Qld's biggest solar power installation
24 October, 2013First Solar has been contracted to construct what will be Queensland's largest solar power installation. The company has signed a contract with the University of Queensland to build a solar photovoltaic research facility at UQ's Gatton campus.
Magellan Power DC Solar Storage system
23 October, 2013 | Supplied by: Magellan PowerDC Solar Storage (DSS) from Magellan Power is available in 3 kW/2.4 kWh or 5 kWh. It is installed on the output of the solar panels and therefore does not interfere with the installed inverter.
Perovskite cells hit 15% efficiency
22 October, 2013NTU scientists have developed a solar cell made from organic-inorganic hybrid perovskite materials which they say is about five times cheaper than current thin-film solar cells, due to a simpler, solution-based manufacturing process.
Lego brick concept creates efficient solar panels
21 October, 2013Scientists have discovered that covering solar panels with aluminium studs helps to bend and trap light in the absorbing layer, increasing the amount of energy extracted from the captured sunlight.
Solar power monitoring system
21 October, 2013 | Supplied by: Magellan PowerMagellan Power Solar Gate is designed to help those with large solar installations keep the energy they generate, for their own use. The product monitors the power demand of a local load and commands grid inverters to produce power equal to the local demand, in order to avoid injection of solar power into the grid.
Solar-powered heating and cooling system developed
17 October, 2013Solar panel systems that both heat and cool buildings may soon be coming to a large office building near you, thanks to engineers at two Spanish universities.
