Solar Energy

2014
European Directive 2010/31/CE on energy efficiency in the buildings sector provides for significant actions for the reductions in energy consumption, and Directive RES 2009/28/CE stimulates the use of energy from renewable sources in order to meet such objectives.

Solar Energy Is the Energy [PDF]

open access: possibleLeonardo, 1995
1979. This aircraft was developed by Paul MacCready and his team to cross the English Channel from England to France. The 96-ft-wingspan aircraft weighed just 55 lbs. The use of synthetic, high-strength, lightweight material played a major role in creating this remarkable design. (Photo: Don Monroe. Courtesy Paul MacCready.) Fig. 3.

Bismuth-based photocatalysts for solar energy conversion

, 2020
Semiconductor photocatalysis is a promising technology for solar fuel production and environmental remediation. However, the solar energy conversion efficiency is far from satisfactory, which restricts its practical application.

Broadband polarization-insensitive and wide-angle solar energy absorber based on tungsten ring-disc array.

Nanoscale, 2020
Nowadays, solar energy is considered one of the most clean energy sources. In addition, the data from the literature tell us that its main radiation bandwidth is approximately 295-2500 nm.

Biological solar energy

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2007
Oil, gas, and coal provide us with most of the energy needed to power our technologies, heat our homes, and produce the wide range of chemicals and materials that support everyday life. Ultimately the quantities of fossil fuels available to us today will dwindle, and then what?

Solar Energy to Biofuels

Annual Review of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, 2010
In a solar economy, sustainably available biomass holds the potential to be an excellent nonfossil source of high energy density transportation fuel. However, if sustainably available biomass cannot supply the liquid fuel need for the entire transport sector, alternatives must be sought. This article reviews biomass to liquid fuel conversion processes

Graphene-Based Standalone Solar Energy Converter for Water Desalination and Purification.

ACS Nano, 2018
Harvesting solar energy for desalination and sewage treatment has been considered as a promising solution to produce clean water. However, state-of-the-art technologies often require optical concentrators and complicated systems with multiple components,

The Source of Solar Energy [PDF]

open access: possibleScience, 1927
While I have wandered from the main subject of the sun, to consider the source of stellar energy, the two topics are so intimately related that their solutions are identical. I consider that I have demonstrated the reasonableness of Jeans's theory by the manner in which it seems to fit the observed facts.

Sustainable Solar Energy

2020
Solar energy is one of the most rapidly developing renewable energies in the world. The global solar PV market has been exceeding future market projections and giant untapped markets are only now waking up. For many years proposals have been made about using the Sahara desert as a place where a gigantic solar farm would be able to power the world.
