Not all crops will grow under solar panels. Depending on the layout, the panels reduce the light getting through by between ...

To address the challenge of characterizing curved, three-dimensional vehicle-integrated photovoltaics (VIPV), scientists at the Polytechnic University of Madrid developed the design principles and ...

New research from IBM and NASA has used AI to power a new and improved simulation of the Sun's activity, allowing marked improvements in the prediction of solar activity. The project, called Surya, is ...

Scientists have used a CPLEX-based MIP model and tested it on a section of the 10 MW Masdar City Solar Photovoltaic Plant. In their simulation, they assume the use of two robotic cleaners to operate ...

Analysts interested in measuring the degradation of molecules due to photodegradation should consider using a photochemical reactor. There are two photochemical reactors in the engineering ...

To keep a solar-powered HAPS flying continuously, its power generation must exceed its consumption. While predicting the power consumption of the motors is straightforward, predicting the power ...

Back in 2019, a consortium of scientists predicted August 2025 as the peak of the solar activity cycle. But where are we now?
