Oxford scientists develop ultra-thin solar coating for efficient energy harvesting

A groundbreaking story from the heart of Arizona, where a tidal wave of solar panels is reaching the end of its life cycle. As the world embraces renewable energy, the challenge arises: what do we do with the mounting waste? In a race against time, companies like we recycle solar are pioneering innovative solutions, turning potential pollution into gold.

Trees are magical. They provide us with food. They produce oxygen and they're beautiful to look at. And guess what, you may soon be able to charge your electric vehicles by connecting it to a tree. Solar botanic trees, a UK based startup is designing sleek solar powered trees that work as EV-charging stations. There are two versions of the tree; 5.5 metres tall and 3.5 metres tall. The sun’s energy is collected via leaves and is stored in a battery within the tree’s trunk. The trees feature solar panels that act as the canopy. These panels absorb sunlight and transform it into electrical energy. An ai-driven energy storage and management system regulates and releases the charging power. The company recently completed a half-scale prototype of the device and is now looking to build and test a full-size version, before going into commercial production at the end of the year. Sadly, the tree has a power generation capacity of only five kilowatts, making it a rather slow charging option for EV drivers.

Solar panels are mostly spread out over the land. But what if we install them atop of water reservoirs? Rohit Wellington tells you about a new research that argues it is what we need to transition away from fossil fuels.

Are floating solar panels the future of energy generation?

There's no doubt that solar power is one of the cleanest form of energy. It is renewable and unlike fossil fuels does not release green house gas. However, one thing that is generally overlooked is that the solar panels have a limited life span. So, what happens when this life span comes to an end?
