Find out more »Photovoltaics have been powering satellites in space for over 50 years, and payloads such as the Hubble Space Telescope and Ingenuity (the Mars Helicopter) depend upon them. The major driving force in PV technologies for space applications has long been maximising the Specific Power of the PV system, minimising payload weight. UK research in this field has gathered importance with the announcement of the Space Energy Initiative in 2022: a consortium bringing together government, academic research and industry to explore…
Find out more »Using photovoltaic technologies to harvest ambient light from indoor settings is increasingly seen as a solution to powering the ever-growing number of Internet of Things devices present in homes and workplaces. Indoor Photovoltaics (IPV) is a key target area for applications of emerging thin film PV materials such as organic and perovskite PV. Needless to say, many challenges need to be addressed to realise the goal of sustainably powering smart devices. This FREE webinar, hosted jointly with the Application Targeted…
