SEARCH: advertisement New Material Grabs More Solar Energy By Technology Research News posted: 04:30 pm ET 07 May 2004 One way to make solar cells more efficient is to find a material that will capture energy from a large portion of the spectrum of sunlight from infrared to visible light to ultraviolet. Energy transfers from photons to a photovoltaic material when the material absorbs lightwaves that contain the same amount of energy as its bandgap. A bandgap is the energy required to push an electron from a material's valence band to the conduction band where electrons are free to flow. Most photovoltaic materials absorb a relatively narrow range of light energy, however. The most efficient silicon solar cells capture only about 25 percent. Multijunction solar cells made from several different materials boost efficiency as high as 36 percent, but are relatively difficult to make and therefore expensive. Researchers from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, the University of California, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology have engineered a single material that contains three bandgaps and is capable of capturing more than 50 percent of the sun's energy. The researchers made the material by forcing oxygen into a zinc-manganese-tellurium crystal. The oxygen split the crystal's band gap and formed a third one of its own. The material could lead to relatively inexpensive, highly-efficient solar cells that would be much simpler to make than today's high-end multijunction solar cells.

62. ENERGY FACTS: PASSIVE SOLAR ENERGY PASSIVE solar energy. Active solar technologies are generally addon featureswhich utilize mechanical means to distribute captured solar energy. http://www.iclei.org/EFACTS/PASSIVE.HTM

PASSIVE SOLAR ENERGY Many different techniques can be used to convert sunlight into useful forms of energy. Active and passive solar energy technologies are generally used for space conditioning (heating and cooling), while solar electric technologies such as photovoltaic cells convert sunlight into electricity. Although the distinction between active and passive solar is blurry, the use of integral building components to capture the sun's energy is considered passive solar. Active solar technologies are generally add-on features which utilize mechanical means to distribute captured solar energy. An example of active solar energy is a solar hot water heater, while passive solar features may be as simple as south facing windows. Passive solar building features can be used to heat and cool buildings, as well as provide light. The best time to incorporate passive solar technologies in a building is during the initial design. Passive solar features can often be included in new buildings without significantly adding to construction costs, while at the same time providing energy savings of up to 40%. Designing the buildings we live and work in, to capture the ambient energy of the sun through passive solar features, is one of the least expensive and most environmentally friendly methods of providing for our energy needs. The Solar Resource Each year, an enormous amount of solar energy reaches the earth's atmosphere. Much of this is reflected back into space by clouds before it reaches the planet's surface. Ninety-nine percent of the sunlight which does reach the ground is converted into heat (the other 1% is captured by plants through photosynthesis) and radiated back into space. If only a small fraction of this energy could be captured, the world's energy demands could be met. Even in cold climates like Canada, the amount of useful solar energy reaching the ground in the winter is greater than the daily heating requirements of a well insulated house.

The Earth Loving Urban Farmstead The Earth Loving Urban Farmstead was the brain child and home of two eco-friendly housemates for 2.5 years. We joined together and bought a huge 114 y.o. house in massive disrepair located the middle of a major U.S. city. Together we fixed it up and created our eco-friendly home with an emphasis on what we dubbed "urban farming". In a massive aviary requiring the majority of our large enclosed front porch we raised bantam chickens as pets and egg providers for the household. Diverting rainwater from the roof and grey water from our washing machine, we watered our 5 food gardens. A composting toilet reduced household water waste and provided safely processed humanure for compost. A complete recycling program was used to reduce household landfill contributions. The grass was cut with a manual mower.

Historically the European PV Conference was first a forum for scientists and researchers with only limited industry involvement. Thanks to the outstanding achievements of all research institutes worldwide, the PV industry could build their product development on this basis. Much more research and development continues to be needed and we are sure we will again see highly innovative, world-class ideas and results presented in our plenary, oral and poster sessions. This will propel our industry by opening opportunities for us to serve new customer needs with novel products and to better meet existing needs with improved products. As representatives of the European PV solar electricity research, industry, and the PV applications community, we would like to use this forum to highlight the challenges ahead of us. We are entering an era of substantial market development and commercial transition of our industry in which Research, Technology and Demonstration achievements will play an important role.

Solar Energy: Become a Sun Chef! Students design and construct a solar cooker. They use the Internet to research solar collectors and the process of changing light energy into heat energy. Using their research, students consider various uses and designs of solar collectors. They consider alternative designs for a solar collector, known as a "solar cooker." They choose one of their designs to construct and build it, using provided tools and materials. The completed solar cooker is then tested by cooking a basic recipe at appropriate temperatures. Grade Level: Subject Matter: Technology Education and Science Curricular Uses: Energy, Physical Science, Environmental Science Students will be able to: Use the Internet to aid in research and design. Identify solar energy. Identify solar collectors. Define conduction, convection, and radiation. Give examples of absorption, insulation, and reflection. Explain the greenhouse effect. Construct and test a solar cooker. Use of Internet: Students will use the Internet as a tool and resource for research. This lesson was developed by Joanne Reddan, wNetSchool Master Teacher, and was funded by the Louis Calder Foundation.
