Synergetic Benefits of Agricultural Sewage Reuse and Floating Photovoltaics in Mexican Wastewater System: A Municipal-Level WEF Nexus Study. [PDF]
This study proposes integrating treated sewage irrigation ponds with floating photovoltaics to enhance wastewater treatment plants’ financial viability in the Atoyac River Basin, central Mexico. The model demonstrates potential to strengthen the water‐energy‐food nexus by recycling one‐third of sewage, increasing irrigation acreage on cornlands ...

Radiative thermal escape in intermediate band solar cells
To achieve high efficiency, the intermediate band (IB) solar cell must generate photocurrent from sub-bandgap photons at a voltage higher than that of a single contributing sub-bandgap photon.

Vehicle integrated photovoltaics module architecture optimization under dynamic shading
Vehicle Integrated Photovoltaics (VIPV) can extend driving range, reduce charging needs, and ease grid demand in electric vehicles. However, unlike conventional PV systems, VIPV modules operate under non-uniform irradiance and dynamic (often partial ...
