Utmolight has achieved 18.1% efficiency with its Perovskiet PV modules, according to the results confirmed by the US National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL). March 6, 2025 Vincent Shaw Utmolight said that his 0.72 m² Perovskiet PV panel has achieved a stabilized full efficiency of 18.1%or 130.5 W based on testing by NREL. The module also showed more than 950 seconds zero demolition under maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) conditions, which determines a new global efficiency record for perovskiet modules of this size, according to the company. Utmolight produced the tested module with the help of a scalable, mass production process…
Panels on the roof, EV chargers and smart thermostats can shoot in to stimulate the resilience of the electricity grid There is much unused potential in our houses and vehicles that can be used to strengthen local electricity networks and make them more resilient for unforeseen malfunctions, according to a new study. In response to a cyber attack or natural disaster, a back -up network of decentralized devices – such as residential solar panels, batteries, electric vehicles, heat pumps and boilers – can repair electricity or relieve stress on the grid, say Mit -Singerkeurs. Such devices are “grid-edge” sources that…
