Benefits of solar thermal energy Like other forms of solar, solar thermal energy can save you money on your electric bill. It also produces energy that is better for the environment. Maybe one of ...

Researchers make game-changing solar-thermal gains with mirror technology: 'A viable pathway' Here's how community solar energy can cut your monthly electric bill — no rooftop panels required ...

The system is an example of solar thermal energy, something at the fringes of today’s market that will need to grow a lot in the coming decades if the world is going to make a transition away ...

Curved molecules that absorb sunlight, store the energy, and re-release it as heat are pushing the boundaries in solar thermal storage technology. Subscribe to our newsletter for the latest sci ...

Researchers in Australia are working on a way to lower the cost of producing solar thermal energy by as much as 40% with the help of shatterproof rear-view mirrors originally designed for cars.

The new thermal solar energy plant comprises 2,240 surface mirrors, with a peak energy yield of 2.7GWh thermal power. It also contains six thermal modules that store energy for when the sun isn ...

As part of that green-power effort, the solar thermal energy towers and mirror arrays are expected to save 1.53 million tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year.

Curved molecules that absorb sunlight, store the energy, and re-release it as heat are pushing the boundaries in solar thermal storage technology. The anthracene systems, derived from a by-product ...
