In what is expected to bring “substantial” cost savings to the industry, Natcore technology Inc. says it has successfully swapped silver for aluminum in its solar cells. A provisional patent ...

A multi-disciplinary team of chemists, metallurgists, and engineers has developed a highly efficient technique to recover silver from decommissioned solar panels, according to their recent study ...

A group of researchers led by the Autonomous University of Querétaro in Mexico have proposed for the first time to fabricate thin-film solar cells relying on an absorber made of silver ...

SINGAPORE: Changes to solar panel technology are accelerating demand for silver, a phenomenon that’s widening a supply deficit for the metal with little additional mine production on the horizon.

This new function provides a novel theoretical foundation for predicting solar eruptions by determining whether new emerging flux (NEF) can trigger instability in solar filaments. The study was ...
