The momentum of the solar energy transition. [PDF]
AbstractDecarbonisation plans across the globe require zero-carbon energy sources to be widely deployed by 2050 or 2060. Solar energy is the most widely available energy resource on Earth, and its economic attractiveness is improving fast in a cycle of increasing investments.

AbstractWhen it comes to using solar energy to promote catalytic reactions, photocatalysis technology is the first choice. However, sunlight can not only be directly converted into chemical energy through a photocatalytic process, it can also be converted through different energy‐transfer pathways.

II. On the conservation of solar energy [PDF]
The question of the maintenance of Solar Energy is one that has been looked upon with deep interest by astronomers and physicists from the time of La Place downward. The amount of heat radiated from the sun has been approximately computed, by the aid of the pyrheliometer of Pouillet and by the actinometers of Herschel and others, at 18,000,000 of heat ...

If solar energy is to become a practical alternative to fossil fuels, we must have efficient ways to convert photons into electricity, fuel, and heat. The need for better conversion technologies is a driving force behind many recent developments in biology, materials, and especially nanoscience.

Solar energy for electricity and fuels [PDF]
Solar energy conversion into electricity by photovoltaic modules is now a mature technology. We discuss the need for materials and device developments using conventional silicon and other materials, pointing to the need to use scalable materials and to reduce the energy payback time.

On the Conservation of Solar Energy [PDF]
Dr. SIEMENS'S theory of the constitution of the sun implies that there is an absorption of solar rays constantly going on in space. If this is so, space cannot be perfectly transparent.
