Eco Factor: Device invented in 1833 modified to generate cheap hydrogen.
Italian researcher G.D. Botto designed an amazing device in 1833 which produced electricity using a thermocouple of two metals – platinum and iron. Botto connected...
If you happen to love gadgets and if plenty of them are lying around like they are in my case, then you will find this very useful. I thought that my modern gadgets would make sure that there is a steep increase in my power bill, but to my surprise...
One of the reasons solar cells are not common is that they are expensive and large scale production of electricity using these cells is not affordable. Any improvement in the technology is surely a welcoming news.
A team of Korean researchers has..
One of the major downsides of solar power has been its low efficiency and relatively high cost. Now, a new ultra-thin solar cell developed by James Zahler from Aonex Technologies and EMCORE PhotoVoltaics, is being touted to offer a cheaper, lighter...
With the rising concerns of the effects of global warming, more and more countries around the world are banking on alternative energy use, solar power being the most popular. And with it, the demand for cheaper, but better solar power production is...
