Sunny outlook for solar industryMunich, Germany (UPI) Jun 11, 2010 The world's biggest solar energy fair is under way in Munich, as growth continues to dominate the sector despite a reduction in government subsidies across Europe. France, Italy and Germany have reduced their feed-in-tariffs recently, leading to a flurry of short-term installations and worrisome statements by officials from the solar industry. The public outcry was loud but, in general, the industry likely won't suffer much: While growth in Europe may slow down, new markets are emerging ... read more |

Durham NC (SPX) Jun 07, 2010A team of Duke University chemists has perfected a simple way to make tiny copper nanowires in quantity. The cheap conductors are small enough to be transparent, making them ideal for thin-film solar cells, flat-screen TVs and computers, and flexible displays. "Imagine a foldable iPad," said Benjamin Wiley, an assistant professor of chemistry at Duke. His team reports its findings online t ... more |
