via PV Magazine India How about solar PV systems that can be moved from one place to another to generate power? And what if the system also lets you generate more power than conventional setups while freeing up a good deal of space for other purposes? Researchers at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IIT
After the film ‘Don’t Look up’, everyone is talking about climate change again and climate researchers like Peter Kalmus are calling on the community to rethink things and allow experiments. I want to follow the thought of a possible hostage situation of the weather a little: In 2009 I organized a photovoltaics conference in Bulgaria in order to be able to push
The dual use of agricultural land as a power station and food cultivation is a really promising approach. We can continue to provide cheap food and at the same time get cheap solar power. In Germany there is a lot of discussion about it and hopefully there will finally be more movement in the market. We definitely need
I got the opportunity to visit the Tartufo Totale in Vienna on Saturday. The event took place in the Vienna Ballhaus and was hosted by the restaurateur Hannah Neunteufel, who did not take the opportunity to do an interview with the truffle blogger Luca Miliffi. Miliffi and Neunteufel then discussed why climate change and the
Obtaining fresh drinking water from the air has been very energy intensive for a long time. Researchers at ETH Zurich have now invented a currentless technology that uses the cooling of space for this. The new device essentially consists of a specially coated pane of glass that both reflects solar radiation and radiates its own heat
The design options with modules on both sides and green roofs are large and very interesting. Cities are increasingly having a problem; they get hot too quickly. Green roofs are ideal, as they can actively cool the roof through the evaporation cold. But the question is often whether a white roof is not more efficient due to
The first research mission of the German Marine Research Alliance examines the oceans as carbon stores A look over the garden fence often helps. While the climate discussion in Austria does not really go on, there is already massive research into CO2 storage(CDR) in Switzerland and Germany. In Austria most people still assume that we will
