Highly transparent solar cells found to generate power 1000x more efficiently
“Solar panels have long been criticized for their appearance, with some people arguing that the large, opaque panels spoil the look of homes and businesses. But now, a group of researchers has developed a highly transparent solar cell using a 2D atomic sheet that could change the perception of solar energy. These near-invisible solar cells have an average visible transparency of 79%, which means that they can potentially be placed almost anywhere, including building windows, car front panels, and even human skin.
Transparent solar cells have the potential to revolutionize the energy industry by expanding the ways in which solar energy can be used. Traditional solar panels are limited to rooftops and other large, flat surfaces, but transparent solar cells could be integrated into buildings and vehicles, as well as other surfaces that are currently not being utilized for energy production.”
