Techno-Economic Analysis of Central Receiver Plants According to the Optical Error of the Solar Field

open access: yesSolarPACES Conference Proceedings
Among the concentrated solar power technologies (CSP), the central receiver (CR) technology is the most promissing to achieve the lowest levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and the one expected to play one of the major roles in the energetic mix in the next

Brownian motion with stochastic energy renewals [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
We investigate the impact of intermittent energy injections on a Brownian particle, modeled as stochastic renewals of its kinetic energy to a fixed value. Between renewals, the particle follows standard underdamped Langevin dynamics. For energy renewals occurring at a constant rate, we find non-Boltzmannian energy distributions that undergo a shape ...

Coupling Interfacial Redox‐Reactions with In Situ Proton Generation for the Photoelectrochemical Separation of Rare‐Earth Elements

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
To enhance the sustainability of electrochemical separations for resource recovery, a photoelectrochemical ion recovery system is developed that utilizes renewable solar energy. A composite integrating titianium dioxide nanorods and a redox‐copolymer enables spontaneous cation adsorption and light‐activated redox reactions for regeneration, thus ...

Unlocking the Potential of Renewable Energy Through Curtailment Prediction [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv
A significant fraction (5-15%) of renewable energy generated goes into waste in the grids around the world today due to oversupply issues and transmission constraints. Being able to predict when and where renewable curtailment occurs would improve renewable utilization.

Advanced Nano‐Fibrillated Cellulose/Modified MXene Janus Membrane for Continuous 24‐h Water‐Power Co‐Generation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The Janus membrane integrates a superhydrophilic CNF@CTAB‐MXene layer with a superhydrophobic PTFE layer, enabling efficient solar‐driven water evaporation and electricity generation. It achieves an evaporation rate of 1.51 kg m−2 h−1 with excellent salt resistance and long‐term stability.

Dual Side Chain Functionalization of Small Molecule Acceptors Affords High‐Performance Organic Solar Cells With Refined Blend Morphology

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A new small‐molecule acceptor (SMA‐Ph‐CF3) is developed using a dual side chain functionalization strategy that incorporates trifluoromethyl and phenyl groups. This approach enables precise tuning of blend morphology, leading to the fabrication of high‐performance organic solar cells with a power conversion efficiency of 18.5%.
