UNSW researchers have developed an intrinsic-adjusted single-diode model that explicitly accounts for radiative and Auger recombination, improving I–V curve accuracy and reducing root mean square ...

China-based PV equipment supplier Suzhou Maxwell Technologies Co., Ltd. has announced it achieved a power conversion efficiency of 26.92% for a heterojunction (HJT) solar cell. The result was ...

Tesla Inc. isn’t waiting around to see if Elon Musk’s 100-gigawatt solar ambition is feasible — it’s already acting on it. The company is evaluating multiple sites across the US to begin manufacturing ...

The electric vehicle giant has started turning Elon Musk's 100-gigawatt solar goal into an active U.S. manufacturing push by scouting multiple sites to make solar cells. The company is weighing an ...

What if the future of solar energy didn’t rely on silicon or even the much-hyped perovskite? What if there was a more sustainable, durable, and cost-effective alternative waiting in the wings?

Elon Musk emphasized in Tesla’s latest results call, which saw net income plunge 61% in 2025’s final quarter, that the EV maker should now be viewed as a “physical” AI company as it makes a big pivot ...

China has quietly pulled off a feat that solar engineers have chased for years, pushing a new cell design to record efficiency by hiding its most important features beneath the surface. Instead of ...
