Aerial Program discovers building energy efficiency faults.

2014-07-14 14:31:27| Industrial Newsroom - All News for Today

Available for use throughout Canada, SkyBEAM™ uses UAVs with Hi-Res IR and video cameras to locate where facilities may be leaking energy or have other potential problems. UAV scans roof in programmed pattern and takes hundreds of photographs that are combined into one image showing precise location of trouble areas. Solution graphically depicts energy inefficiencies by showing temperature variations within building, and virtual building model created in 2D and 3D can be viewed from any angle.

Solar singlet fission bends the laws of physics to boost solar power efficiency by 30%

2014-07-11 17:27:46| Extremetech

Chemists at the University of California Riverside (UCR) have devised a way of increasing solar cell efficiency by as much as 30%. With current photovoltaic cells unable to surpass 33% due to the Shockley-Queisser limit, a boost of 30%, to a total efficiency of 60% or more, would be absolutely huge -- and exactly what solar power needs if it ever hopes to be a cost-efficient alternative to fossil fuel power generation. Best of all, though, this new method for boosting solar cell efficiency has an awesome name: singlet fission.
