Record-breaking Solar Cells Tailored To Location
Hardware – Solar Cells: Urchin writes “The quality of sunlight varies depending on where you live, but off-the-shelf solar cells are all identical. A new solar cell designed by UK firm Quantasol is easily tuned to adapt to the local light conditions, which boosts its long-term performance. Its short-term performance isn’t bad though — the single junction solar cell has a peak efficiency greater than any previous device, beating a world record that’s stood for 21 years.”
