Think about this during these
dog days of summer: Researchers are working to capture the sun's rays more
efficiently and turn them into electricity, using a see-through solar panel no
thicker than a plastic grocery bag.Officials with Phillips 66 said Tuesday that
their partnership with California startup Solarmer Energy and a Chinese
university has yielded the most efficient polymer-based organic solar cell
yet,My first impression of this Solar
charger equipment is that the design of solar panel is very humanization and
comfortable as battery. a milestone that puts them closer to marketing the
technology.
Byron Johnson, manager of sustainability technologies at Houston-based Phillips 66, said the work reflects the company's commitment to renewable technologies, even though its core business remains rooted in the oil industry.An extremely important component associated with a camping holiday is Solar Camping light. Regardless of if you're a hardcore camper who'll venture out in almost any weather."Most of our work involves petrochemicals," he said. "That is our business. But we want to understand all energy sources and also participate in them."Unlike conventional silicon solar panels, polymer-based organic solar cells are thin and flexible. They're also far less expensive to manufacture, Shrotriya said.Now the discovery of CFL bulbs contain mercury, which may contaminate the environment, consider the use of LED bulb.
But they also are less efficient at converting sunlight to electricity.The partnership announced Tuesday that its technology had been certified by the Newport Technology & Application Center's Photovoltaic Lab in Long Beach, Calif., as achieving 9.31 percent efficiency - that is, the percent at which the technology converts photons, or sunlight, to electrons, or electricity.
