Water-splitting cells absorb sunlight and produce fuel. Creating such cells means pairing a material to absorb sunlight and generate electrons with the one that uses those electrons to produce fuel. Scientists introduced a novel way to study the flow of electrons where the materials meet.

More than 7 million smart meters will be installed in homes across Great Britain under a new GBP 1 billion mass roll-out programme backed by the European Investment Bank alongside six commercial banks (Barclays, Crédit Agricole CIB, HSBC, Santander, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation and The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ Ltd)…
A research team has developed a series of reactions that results in the selective conversion of ethanol to butanol, without producing unwanted byproducts. Read more here:: http://feeds.sciencedaily.com/~r/sciencedaily/matter_energy/fuel_cells/~3/E3kTyG1aauY/151203203610.htm
By melissa 04 December 2015 An innovative solar cell technology with the potential to reduce the cost of renewable energy is receiving a funding boost from the Australian Renewable Energy Agency (ARENA). ARENA is providing up to $892,000 to support CSIRO to develop and apply guidelines for assessing the performance…
By Wayne.Hicks@nrel.gov (Wayne Hicks) December 3, 2015 Scientists at the Energy Department’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) have developed a new probe that could lead to a better photoelectrochemical cell. A paper on the discovery, “Semiconductor interfacial carrier dynamics via photoinduced electric fields,” was published in Science Magazine. Ye Yang…
