Solar fuels: Refined protective layer for the 'artificial leaf'
2016-03-21 20:02:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: The team was able for the first time to produce a hybrid structure that converts 12 per cent of the incident solar energy into the form of hydrogen. The results have now been published in Advanced Energy Materials. The "artificial leaf" consists in principle of a solar cell that is combined with further functional layers. These act as electrodes and additionally are coated with catalysts. If the complex system of materials is submerged in water and illuminated, it can decompose water molecules....

India: Investors may shun thermal projects for solar energy
2016-03-21 09:59:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Economic Times: The private sector may be giving up on greenfield thermal power projects and looking to solar energy instead. Installation and generation costs have risen for thermal plants following an increased coal cess and stricter pollution norms, experts said, adding that are likely to go even higher.

Solar panel tax increases opposed by Eurosceptic Tory MPs
2016-03-18 10:46:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
E and T: Eurosceptic Conservative MPs are backing Labour moves to block an increase to taxes on solar panels and other energy saving measures. A group of Brexit-supporting Tory MPs, including Bernard Jenkin, Peter Lilley, Nigel Evans, Graham Brady and Jacob Rees-Mogg, have signed up to a Labour amendment which would stop a VAT hike on solar and energy saving measures from five to 20 per cent. The government is raising VAT charged on the clean energy measures, after the European Court of Justice ruled...
